Hi Everyone! I found some more photies so time for an update...
Hi Gregory, Thank you for joining in, and yes, a great easier kit by WNW, i have seen your builds on other sites, wonderful stuff!
Hi Lukas, Thank You for joining in!
Suzanne, it's a pleasure to welcome you, I hope it gets you going with a WNW kit...
Des, Thank you for commenting, these are older photos, the build is much further, but not complete yet... we are catching up...
RAGIII, thanks for following along...
Well, next I started painting the insides, a very neutral shade to represent clear-doped linen on the insides, and picking out the woodwork in a woody brown... not that neat, but not much will be seen when everything is closed up...
Then paint up some ammo canisters.. just silver undercoat...
Then had to paint the Vickers, Gunmetal, quick wash of black and a little highlighting with silver rub 'n buff, I don't like guns to be too dark, especially if they are tucked away under the top wing...
And then the instrument panel. My technique here is fairly standard: After the brown undercoat, I used thinned oil paints (W&N Burnt umber) to create a grainy appearance and allow it a few days to dry. Then coat that with Tamiya Clear Yellow acrylic, airbrushed on in a thin lcoat to imitate the varnish. Then I pick out the instrument bezels in black or brass. When it's dry add the WNW instrument face decals, they're good! Then a touch of gloss acrylic varnish to represent the glass...
Regards,
Marc
