Bob. Love the PC10. You mentioned Tamiya Field Green but cannot find it in the range. What is the XF# please?

Oops, yes PC10 :o At least on the wing pic.

On the last fuselage picture it was for me clearly a PC12 Pup.  Never trust a camera and a monitor ;D

Cheers Rick!!

Got another weeeeeeeee update for you.

I sprayed 'Chin Chow' using home made masks. The tamiya white was toned down with one drop of buff to 20 drops of white, thinned 50/50 with tamiya thinner + a couple drops of flow-aid.
The 'British Guiana No2' will come from the decal. My machine is good, but it's not that good!

Looking at the original photo of Chin Chow the number 4 next to the roundel on the fuselage sits just below the stitching. The decal was way to big. So I whipped out the digital calipers, measured and cut my own mask.  Job done!

Cheers all!
von B  :)

Looking very nice von B. A perfect white marking really sets off your great PC10.

Great use of the cutter for the markings Bob. Nice artistic touch toning down the white a little too. This is a very lovely pup coming together. :)
