Hope I can remember how to do this picture thing again . . . Doh!

Cheers lads

This will be an honour to watch. Especially seeing these details on Beardmore...

I remember trying to add details to a Beardmore - you have done a really good job on yours. Looks just like the real thing!

Masking a wing is a bit tedious, but the shading is a task on its own.
Hopefully I can remember what I used to do as I (went to the dark side twice)
A Zero and Corsair  . . . . . Always preferred the planes you could see the guts of   :)

Now that's a great bit of masking. It will be well worth all the work. I so wish I had gone to this much trouble on my build.

Now the result . . . . Low air pressure with the first nozzle taken off of the airbrush.
Time consuming, but worth it, only taking off all that tape is  . . . fun . . . Yeah right.
