Nathan Dempsey 著者Welcome Torsten & Robert!
I've started the fuselage assembly and clamps were needed.

DutchNathan, I am following along as well. I have friends in eastern Ukraine, so very interested in this one. Kind regards, Dutch

Nathan Dempsey 著者Welcome Dutch! This build is turning into a slog. Clamps and super-glue "force-holds" galore. Luckily it is a tiny plane so I'm nearly done already, just completing all the seam sanding.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Working on the cowl. I had to use 2-part epoxy clay to fill a large gap on the bottom of the cowl that was created by making the cowl fit straight & level.

DutchLooking good. Keep up the progress. The splinter pattern will be stupendous when done.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Thanks Dutch! Man I just realized looking at pictures that the wing camo is a mirror image for the other wing. It won't be perfect… 😁

Nathan Dempsey 著者Welcome to the show Ben! I've applied the first color today. Now off to cut masks for the next color. I've been spoiled by those pre-cut masks…

DutchNathan, quick question. Why not just spray the first color overall, then mask only the subsequent colors? Saves at least one step, I should think. Carry on. I am enjoying the show.

Nathan Dempsey 著者In this case I just got a little too happy masking. I even decided against my usual preshade since this plane's paint looks really new in all the pictures.

DutchNathan, are you going to put kill markings on it?

Nathan Dempsey 著者Well my printer is dead, but my dad has a similar one so I'm going to try… Wish me luck.

Nathan Dempsey 著者The second color has been applied. Slow going here as my workbench time has been lacking.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Thanks Dutch! Today I masked off the areas for the gloss black. The tan colored areas are quite small, but they're everywhere. Tamiya tape stock is going up!!
26 August 2024, 17:32
Nathan Dempsey 著者Well my gloss black was solidified, so flat black will have to do. Hopefully it will all even out when the clear is applied

Nathan Dempsey 著者Thanks Jennifer and Villiers!
Work continues on masking these tiny sections.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Well that was a whole bunch of masking for some very tiny pixels… I also added a coat of Future to help with the panel lining effort to come.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Today has seen the underside color selected and applied (Tamiya X-14 Sky Blue) along with masking/painting the cowl colors using Steel & Red.

Nathan Dempsey 著者I'm using both AK & Mig panel wash. For the bottom I used Grey-Blue and for the top I haven't decided whether I'll use a dark brown or black wash. Of course for the black areas I'll use the Stone Grey wash which I think is Mig.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Thanks LC & Guy!
More masking for the Ukrainian flag on the tail today.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Thanks Robert!
Chrome Yellow has been applied for the first half of the Ukrainian flag on the tail.
6 September 2024, 14:53
Nathan Dempsey 著者The Ukrainian flag on the tail has been completed and the landing gear legs have been painted and attached.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Thanks Dutch! Today I completed painting the canopy framing and the wheels. Also my clear gloss arrived in the mail today, so I'll be able to apply that to the entire aircraft. After that I only need to paint the anti-glare panel on the upper cowl. Nearing the finish line.

Nathan Dempsey 著者Calling this one complete. Thanks for the interest and likes!

DutchOoh-la-la! Well done Nathan. Definitely a special addition to the display case.
