I agree but the best shots of a spit are when at the top of the loop then diving for the attack\ said:Looking good, despite the defying gravity shots... :D
This is looking a cracking spitfire project\ said:Hi guys first attempt of masking and the top of the plane is painted, quite happy with the results for my first attempt, thanks for everyone's help on the masking thread and I'll promise I'll take some decent pictures if it turns out ok, next step camo!
Yeah it is, but worth it. Wait until you get around to a three colour scheme, that's fun.\ said:Painstaking this part huh...
What a place for it to lift too, just outside the invasion stripe area. Give the touch up time to dry and see whether it looks okay after that. If not, you can either touch up again or respray the affected areas. A pain in the rear but that's modelling for you. Otherwise the paint work looks great, very nice work.\ said:Is there a way to resolve this? Should I just spray over the top?
Best done before the camouflage is painted. White is by nature quite translucent, and would be easier over a light coloured base coat. The best way from here is to mask off the areas not being sprayed or painted. Luckily it's a large area on both the wings and fuselage which will be covered. Paint the white first. You may require more than the one coat. Once dry, mask the areas to stay white using strips cut to the correct widths, and then do your black colour.\ said:How is this going to spray over the existing colours or is it something I should have thought about before now? Is there any special process I need to follow?
