Finally the 1/48 HobbyBoss f4f-3 is done! I am going from shelf queen to shelf queen... The p-47d is waiting patiently to be finished next.

I found something way more frustrating than rescribing... 😰
I think I will sell off all my bi-planes. All five of them!

It's been almost a month since I did some proper scale modeling 😅 Instead getting more and more into riding my 15 years old mtb again after 6 years not touching it. How I've missed the trails!
If I can keep this up I promised myself a new bike.
Now slowly getting back to the bench

Today I finally decided to cut the vac-formed canopy for the Wildcat. It's originally made to fit the Tamiya kit, but I think it fits OK enough. It's been waiting patiently for it for many months 😅 But I felt courageous today. I did cut my thumb with the hobby knife...

Drilling out the 4.5 inch rocket launchers. Bombs are cleaned and ready. Not the most exciting thing to do (or show), but still part of the process..

Flat paint is done except for some touch ups. The Tamiya tape left marks on the paint. Next time de-tack some more! Also the blue tack left marks, but rubbing with a cotton swap fixed that. The colors have subtle shades, but the phone didn't pick those up unfortunately.

Slowly building up the OD in thin layers. Trying to replicate faded OD under a hot Italian sun.
Tamiya OD with some drops of Desert Yellow thinned with X-20A and Mr. Levelling Thinner.
I will do some post-shading after this.

There is some 🐌 progress. The neutral grey underside of the 1/48 scale Academy P-47D is masked and finally ready to receive the OD.

I found this old decal sheet online by Almark Decals. This gave me a boost in motivation to pick up the Airfix Sea Fury again after I finish the P-47D. What a decalsheet can do... Hope they're good 🫣
Nr. 114 looks interesting, a Mig-15 killer.

New airbrush! 🥳 The Creos PS-270 with 0.2 mm needle.
Looking forward to use this for detail painting.
The Iwata HP-C+ holder cap fits the PS-270 perfectly 👍🏽

Great models on the contest table at KMK ScaleWorld, Belgium. Good for the mojo meter and I finally found myself a 1/48 Hasegawa P-40K. And for a decent price!

Finally some colors! The aim is to let the pre-shading have a subtle effect, not too stark. I used thin layers to slowly build up the color.
Painted with Vallejo Model Air, Airbrush Thinner and a drop of Flow Improver.

Pre-shading WIP with white on top of the Ammo primer, which is a fairly dark grey.
Today top side, to prevent me from going nuts.. tomorrow bottom side.

Always nice to see how everything comes together after a coat of primer.
Primed with Ammo grey primer and light sanding with different grits of sanding cloths.

I should have used this the first time round.. The good stuff: mr color super metallic 2 after a coat of Tamiya gloss black.
Let's see if I can tone down the shininess a bit 😎☀️

I don't know what happened, but yea.. stripping the paint.
(maybe I do know🤔: never seal mr. metal color with Vallejo gloss, use Citadel for touch ups and following it by an oil wash.. 😅)

Onze frietwagen heeft het zwaar in Oekraïne. In Sviatohirsk viel de afzuiging uit terwijl veel mensen stonden te wachten. Na heel wat sleutelen konden we toch bakken. Daarna reden we zes uur terug naar Dnipro, waar Coen zijn best zal doen om het te maken.

Trying to be efficient with the limited time available outside of work. Doing a workout while waiting for the CA to cure..
Finally, most of the work on the fuselage is done 😮💨 Moving on to detailing the engine next. #scalemodels #histscalemodels
