I’m gonna let it dry overnite, then I’ll mask off the wings to do the yellow leading edge ID stripe

That's nice that is - you're about the same stage as me. I'm not been able to take that much WIP as the house is in total disarray as I've been trying to get all the decorating done by Christmas - almost there though.

That looks nice, Carlos!

Lyle and Stuart, thank you. Lyle, you sure have a LOT of projects going on there on your work bench!

Finished up the base colors this morning. Added the wing leading edge Yellow ID stripes, and painted the propellor blades. Then I had to go back and do a little touch upon the IJN Green. So then I did a bit of mottling to give a nice blotchy appearance.



Next up, gloss coat, then decals…

Will you paint the roundels or using decals ?

Very nice Carlos! I'm still painting my leading edges so you're overtaking me

I spend a ton of time on the masking, paint stirring, thinning, and airbrush cleaning. But the actual paint time is usually fairly quick by comparison.

Thank you Kari. I’ll be using decals. I have no appetite for that much masking here.
