Cheers Mark, I prefer the design of the F-16’s I’m building, no top seamTaking shape nicely I ended up with a bit of filler in mine too, cockpits looking well.
Thanks pal, marvellous what I can get done when it’s quiet hereBlimey.... only looked away for a short while..... and missed LOADS!!!
Excellent stuff Mick,the cockpit looks superb!!
You`re going to finished before i even START mine by the looks of it!!
Many thanks for keep looking in, hopefully clear coat tomorrow but swmbo gets backLooking better every day. Always good when the paint starts to fly.
Thanks Tim,such a great looking aircraftLooking fine in all her best clothes there Mick.
Thanks Jim, Eduard on the cockpit and Top Notch on the rest plus a bit of my homemade bitsHi Mick
That is looking a top job. Those Eduard masks really have worked a treat.
Many thanks for that SteveI was thinking at first it might have been a 2nd TAF thing, that being a law unto itself when it came to markings, mainly in an effort to stop US 8th AF fighters attacking its aircraft.
Then I thought it might be because No.487 (RNZAF) Squadron operated its Mosquitoes at this time primarily as night intruders, though it did undertake daylight operations, one of which resulted in this aircraft suffering Cat.E damage (written off).
Then I thought, how many wartime Mosquitoes have I seen with underwing roundels (apart from the prototypes)?
I can't access anything not on this computer at the moment, but I have a suspicion that underwing roundels may not have been a requirement for Mosquitoes.
Thanks Scottie appreciate thatMick,
Looking mighty fine mate.
Many thanks Allen, the naps are an integral part of my routine Decals are always my nemesis, no matter how calmly I approach the placement one little touch too far and in comes the panicWow Mick!!! Nice smooth camo and clean work all around Buddy. Amazing what man can accomplish with a little free time at the bench, between naps, that is. I feel you about decals as looking at mine, they do scare me quite a bit too. Drive on Sir!!!....
I checked my paint schemes and they show no roundels on the underside either. Thanks for the info Steve....
Prost
