Björn Svedberg 著者I've started to build "Daisy". So far only base paint of the interior. This kit from Trumpeter is really nice with lots of details and some photo etched parts.

Erik LeijdensGreat start Björn. Really nice interior 👍. Looks like a big one too.
22 October 2017, 20:00
Björn Svedberg 著者Now the interior is all finished. I took a few photos before closing the fuselage. Most of the details will not be seen again😉.

Björn Svedberg 著者Gloss black all sprayed in preparation for the polished aluminum. Never done a metal look before.. Scary D:

Martin OostromShe looks fine. If you're using Alclad alu, just be sure to varnish asap. Otherwise you run the risk of tearing of the paint when masking for other paints.

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks guys!
@Martin, thanks for the suggestion! Masking has worked out well, so far..
A hughe releif when the SAS Dragon head came out well. I still have all the text and the swedish/danish/norwegian flags to mask and paint, but now I'll have a break and a well deserved beer 🙂.

Björn Svedberg 著者Today has been all about masking and painting the text on the sides of the plane. It worked out really well. I also added the red on the dragon head. Next will be the national insignias.

Martin OostromLookin' good. But why is there a gap in the blue line? Is that where the door is supposed to be?

Mats BengtssonLooking good so far Björn 👍 . This particular aircraft has a very interesting history, really nice to see it being built in 1/48.

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks Mats and Martin!
@Martin the gap is where the national insignias will be. I'm working on them now 🙂.

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks Clifford and Erik!
The SAS logo with the national insignias are now finished. It was a little tricky to get all the masks to line up correctly.

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks guys!
I've done some touch ups on the paint after handling the fuselage for all the masking and now I'm only waiting for my aqua gloss to arrive so I can seal it and do final assembly.

Gordon SørensenGreat looking interior and engine detail, Björn! The NMF and SAS logos look fantastic! Great job!

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks Essi and Gordon!
I actually made a mistake on the SAS-logo text. The letters should have less spacing in between them.

Björn Svedberg 著者The DC-3 is finished! 🙂
This was a really nice kit to build. It had some PE parts and rubber wheels. Also the elevators and the rudder are poseable.

Spanjaardcertainly a gorgeous model, it does look really great. excellent NMF. 60 cm, that is certainly a big fellow!

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks Spanjaard and David!
Yes, these 1/48-scale planes are big. And I have a couple more coming...

Björn Svedberg 著者Thanks Erik!
@Spanjaard I don't really have the space either, so I have to find some...
This, though is a present for my brother on his birthday.

Gordon SørensenFantastic looking DC-3, Björn! It really turned out nice. I am sure your brother will appreciate it.

Björn Svedberg 著者Thank you mates! 🙂
The Trumpeter kit is a very nice kit to start with. I'm planning to build another version of Daisy in her war time livery in the future. She participated during D-Day and is still flying here in Sweden.

bughunterVery nice work!
How you made the masks for the text? With a cutting plotter, laser or by hand?

Björn Svedberg 著者Thank you bughunter! 🙂
The masks for the dragon head, the flags and the text was cut with a cutting plotter.
