Hoho, Augie is sneaking in again with her "full metal Thud"? Nice start with the cockpit!

Its Fallen together, Have not gone mad on this one as the main reason is to test the finish I can get for bare metal.

I already missed you 😉 This is a cool finish, I guess the finished model will look awesome!

Lol Hey Christian, thanks I just hope the finish holds up once done.

Thanks James 🙂
Dont let the raised details put you off, still makes a good show on the shelf!

Augie, what color did you use under the gilt? And have we already seen that FG. 1 trying to hide in the background?
oh, and nice "concrete shelf" that you have the models displayed on, too

Hey rex,
Under the gilt is bare plastic which for this kit was grey.
The FG.1 has been seen an is avalible in my project to see more 🙂
Thanks on the shelf, was just a print out of concrete texture to make it look a bit better

That sounds like some neat stuff. How did you ever find out about using that? Did you seal it with a clear coat?

Hi clifford, I used to use it for other artistic things. I have used it for shocks on undercarriges for years... just never been brave enough till now to use it all over.
It is sealed under future
