Lots of little detail nooks and crannies on this one Leon to keep you busy! Big guns will always put a smile on your face.  Bill, I think this is the most difficult one I've had to paint so far! ???I will have a big smile once it's painted.  |

Nice to see wheels on a stick Leon! Keep at it, lots of surface area in those nooks and crannies to soak up paint. |

Good progress Leon! Looking forward to paint flying in a strictly controlled fashion.
Hope your better half is feeling better.

Dierk thank you! I believe trying to paint this with a rattle can would be almost impossible and a waste of paint. The better half is feeling a lot better,thank you. |

Evening guys! Decided to take a short break from building and do some interior painting.No idea why I'm doing this as most of it will be hidden once closed up .The front seats will be the only part visible through the two open hatches.Oh well I,m having fun.   Going to let the paint cure on the radios for a day or two then apply a clear coat,then attempt to put the decals on.   Thanks for looking,as always ACW. |

Impressive beasty!
Thumbs up for Trumpy including an interior, thumbs down for then going and covering it with EPMs.

Post by Leon on Nov 5, 2015 5:28:04 GMT -5
Thank you Dierk! I decided not to fill the EPMs since this part of the interior won't be visible. |

Post by dierk on Nov 5, 2015 5:51:45 GMT -5
That's what I thought Leon, and the critique was squarely aimed at Trumpeter: surely it can't be that difficult to design a sprue layout in such a way that any EPMs would be hidden on the back of parts? Or am I expecting too much (again)?

Post by Leon on Nov 5, 2015 5:59:23 GMT -5
No worries on the critique Dierk, :DI was thinking the same on the EPMs.Maybe one day Trumpeter will get it right. |

Catching up here Leon! Looking great! Nice to see the primer come out! Nothing wrong with a little interior painting...even when some of it get unnoticed in the end! All part of the game! And it keeps the skills frosty!! |
