Thanks Gil
I made huge mistake and applied Testors Gloss coat over the enamel OD. :smiley13: After serious bad reactions .I am now removing all the OD paint on the upper surface.
Trying Mr Color paint remover for first time..So far looks very effective .May have to publish some comments after using this stuff. I had never heard of it.
Cheers
Greetings
We are progressing
Question
Any suggestions on buffing/sanding the Paint to smooth out the finish without removing much Paint?
Thanks
PS Paint is still drying in Photo...strange looking Shades
Actually the front clear parts went on with almost no fit problems.
I future'd them back in December and they came out very nice. My first task when building aviation is to future the clear pieces.
Thanks for the comments
Progress continues however challenging
I know most of this engine will nort be seen ,but what the heck
Some of the most challenging parts getting the nacelles to "Blend"
We March ON

Dick Very nice Stuka. I have to say I have never built one( something about that Plane
Here is my last plane for this build. I hope to accomplish by the end of August deadline , but I'm not hopefull
Started components
A little Glue,Lots of sanding sticks and some magic pixie dust(future) and presto. I never want to hear anybody say, just a simple swipe with a sanding stick.
Blenheim moving along..need more sanding sticks
Thanks again
Thanks David

I have completed the AZ Model 1/72nd Hurricane.
A bit of a challenge ,but what the Heck.
Blenheim looks to be the same type of challenge
Hurricane photos
I couldn't agree with you more.
Threw the glue in the Tamiya box and shook.Out popped the Spit. The AZ just laughed at me.
Good challenge for a modeler.
Thanks Gil
