A place for our military aviation modellers to show their stuff. It may not be civil but it still has a home here

Well looks alright I suppose, won't get off the ground though, it needs those round rubber things on the bottom of the toothpicks, and hasn't got an engine, or even a pair of Germans in a sauna

So the question is, how did you get the Alclad on this to work, and not on the Hurri

Smartarse Graeme :lol: :lol: :lol: Re the Alclad, this was 1 colour with one go as the clear coat. Where as the Hurricane was 3 colours with a lot of masking and Alclad gloss as the clear coat. So I guess note to self, use one go if I wanna mask more that 1 colour Alclad. Live and learn. Finished pics to follow :)

Well it's done. I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out after the decal disaster and the SNAFU that is the Hurricane. That's 1 out of 4 finished (The Hurricane is in the naughty corner and therefore off the list) before I head back to TSV. Best I get cracking. Here's the "glamour" (use that term VERY loosely) shots :)

OK, now it looks good, ready to train those English Matelots

With Alclad, I wouldn't have thought that clear coating between different Alclads would work anyway, why not just do the Alclads first, then clear coat

The first 2 colours went on. When I masked for the 3rd and then removed said masking, it lifted the 2nd one. So I repainted the 2nd again then put a clear coat down to protect it when I remasked for the 3rd colour again. How wrong I was. Anyways I'm over it now. The piece of shit can sit there for years for all I care now. Got other stuff to concentrate on :)
