Title: Detail photos of TVAL's SE5a reproduction
Post by: Jamo on April 28, 2017, 08:28:51 PM

Seeing as how Eduard have brought out a new tool SE5a in 1/48 scale I thought I would update some of my SE5a detail photos at my last visit to Hood Aerodrome.

Thanks for these magnificent photos, Jamo!  I've got a couple of the Eduard kits and these will be a tremendous help.

IMHO rib tapes are best represented by a clear coat with a slightly different sheen to the main colour. No pre-shading visible in reality. Have a look at this shot:

Notice how the rigging wires pass through the top cowling here:

Great shots, and timely reference for the Eduard kit. Thank you for going to the trouble.
I agree about the rib tapes not really appearing as pre-shade, more a question of a varnish or sheen level contrast.

Cheers

Syd
