I like the look of some paint creeping inte the grooves of the corrugated steel, mainly because I think it looks correct... the same way it would have looked back then. It'll be interesting to see how it looks after you've painted the main colour.

Lovely work Bob, she's looking terrific! I'm another fan of the overspray.

Hello all,
Just to bring you guys uptodate.
I'm 80% there with the Junkers and by hook or crook she will be done before the end of October.

All the markings were sprayed on using my homebrew masks. Paints are from the Mr Color and Tamiya range of paints. Thinned with body shop lacquer thinners.
A weeeee splosh of weathering to add plus the undercarriage and rudder needs bolting on.

Dot the i and cross the t and soon I'll be done.

Cheers!

Bob

What a color combination! Your Junkers D.1 looks marvelous, Bob. It seems particularly appropriate for this memorial GB since I'm quite certain that the Junkers D.1 was last WNW project that Dave completed prior to going into hospice care.

Great job on that airbrushing. Lovely colours.
BTW, I am planning this scheme for my Junk D.I but I think I will go for the red fuselage and black-white band.
