Frank Luke: Aviattic Legends Series
« on: February 28, 2016, 11:28:35 PM »
I thought I would begin a painting Log on this one. I plan to do this in conjunction with painting the AViattic AEF figures so it will be a slow process.

I have cleaned up,( not much to do there), and primed the figure. I noticed a very slight pin hole in the lip. Hopefully not too difficult to fill with a tiny drop of glue or paint.

Hi RagIII!
Being in the process of building hobbycraft Spad XIII in Luke's markings and having the figure myself, I may join you shortly in a different post if you don't mind!

Knowing your figure painting skills I am looking forward to your painting log! I am sure you will progress much more quickly than I will  ;D

Thanks Des although I don't know how much of a "Tutorial" it will be  :-X Watch Iwiks log when he starts it, he is an awesome figure painter.

It has been a LOOOONG time since I posted an update on this one. While working on My RFC pilot I decided to get this one close to being finished. Sorry the photos aren't great.
