Thanks all!

I have a Russian model that the wings seem crooked on but then it's an optical Ilyushin....

I gotta say Steve that made me laugh out loud - who doesn't love a good modelling 'dad joke'  ;D

What did you use for the wash around the cowling?

Hi PJ - the wash is an oil wash, using raw umber oil paint. I am converted to this colour now; I used to use a mix of black and burnt sienna but I find that is quite 'heavy'; the raw umber produces a nicer more subtle result, I think.

Cheers again,

BC

Hi all - a forum member named Chris sent me an e-mail through the forum looking for a scan of the undercarriage jig; unfortunately there was no information regarding a member name or details (the automated e-mail address was that of Des, the previous forum owner). Can the subject Chris please drop me a PM or put their hand up here?

Thanks! :)
