Wasn't happy with the "light blue" the kit called for. Bought some Testors blue metal flake, and blended some gloss white in to try and get a closer approximation of the engine color. Also took some liberties with the oil pan. Instead of keeping it blue, I mixed some flat aluminum with some flat brass. Two shots of the intake manifold show the light blue previously used, and the darker custom shade I mixed.
After most of the parts were put together, I ran a black wash over all of it to highlight the textures and give it a "oily/dirty" look. So used to doing that with acrylics, that I forgot that it wants to remove the paint I'm going over. Overall, not too bad for the first model I've touched in 25 years.

Good color choice! I think it doesn't matter wethter it is original paint or not. I never saw one original so it looks pretty good to me. Cool!

Thanks! A couple of the original paint colors for this car was Lucerne Blue (this one is probably closer to what I have here) and Bermuda Blue which I really wanted but couldn't find anything close. Either way I'm really happy with the end result.

More progress,
-Masking of clear parts with Eduard masks
-Some details on the main fuselage were not suitable for the variant -B so I removed them but also added some others from my spare parts
-Resque hoist provided by Italeri is suitable for -A variant only,so I made another from my spare box which is almost the correct one (will add some wiring also in the end)
-Added seatbelts on the seats

Great metal effect on the double radial engine, but very basic in detail. 😉
Ok, kidding aside. Lovely progress. I am in for the ride.
