Yes, my usual method is to work from the black primer too but I always like to try different things. After this one I might not bother again

Yeah this didn’t look like your usual expert work before painting. We all learn at least you try different things. Still tuned out great.

Your topside doesn't look like a nightmare. I actually think it's pretty successful. I also find the selected colors spot on. I'm excited to see what happens next and what the plane looks like with decals.

Thanks Andreas. The journey to get there was a nightmare but I'm happy with the end result (for the base colour stage)

Decals are going on now

Beautiful paint job on the cockpit Andy,a real treat to see ,
..... and,as you say, it's certainly looking like a Hurricane now.

It is a fine balance getting the pre shading right, a skill I haven't yet mastered. Too much paint and you loose the effect, too little and it looks false. Your model looks fine to me Andy.

Cheers Andy.

Decals are on. As with a build video I saw, the upper roundals have chipped quite a bit over the raised rivets so they'll need some touching up:

Beautiful Bird Andy

The surface detail is rather nice on those wings.
Paint is looking very nice too. You busted the same canon off as I did. lol

Thanks all, I'm glad you like it.

The fuzzy edges of the camo are growing on me. Not accurate but I think they soften the overall look.
