Wanted to continue coloring today...had to learn the hard way that you A. never should apply to much pressure to a clogged color bottle and B. never should do this not on your working space but on your computer desk...was a "funny" evening.

Finished filling all gaps and holes. This evening, the sanding frenzy can begin.

Catastrophy! While masking the rudders, the primer on the right wing started tearing off. Sanded the afflicted area and reapplied primer. Hopefully it is ok now. But 2 days work are lost.

Pitty - a primer must stick to the surface and not the mask. What primer are you using and did you wash the kit with soap?

Hi Thomas, I'm using the Vallejo PU Primer and had no problems with it ever since. I assume, too, that I didn't clean that part of the wing thoroughly enough. I will apply the skyblue to the rudder today and mask it tomorrow, again, to apply the mediterranian blue to the rest of the belly.

Ok, finally finished this one. My youngest one is proud of this warbird hanging from his ceiling.

nice work, your youngest one can really be proud. The canopy is very clear, did you dip it future or anything similar?

Hi Thomas, always wanted to try that future stuff with canopys, but this one is out of the box. No polish or anything else.
