Very beautiful built. The 300ZX is one of my favorite cars. It looks good. The only thing is the slight color difference of the hood. With metallics, I always paint the parts together. I attach the "loose" parts to the openings with adhesive tape from the inside so that the parts don't have any contact. This is how I prevent them from sticking together through the paint.

Thank you Christian! I was really hoping not to mess this one up as I am still learning the ropes and the 300 ZX is one of my all time favourites as well. You are right about the hood. I only noticed this when I finished spraying everything and I wondered if this has been like that because the hood came in on a clear part or if I simply applied different thickness of spray layer.
Thank you for the great tip! I will definitely do that with my next build.

You're welcome!
AS you wrote now, I thought also about it, while I wrote my sent5ences: is the hood clear plastics? It could be a reason of the different color. But If you basecoated everything the same way, I think, it should not happen. On my damn Messerschmitt Kabinenrollen (1956 Messerschmitt KR200 - wip | Album by christian-w (1:24)) I had a big problem with a non-propper shine of the clear coat of the "canopy" of the drivers cabin (picture #4). On this kit, it is also completely a clear part. At the end, I used a couple of layers of "Future" to solve the problem. Satidfied, but not perfect. And I don't care 😄
On my Pontiac built, I shot a picture of the taped-from-the-inside-hood coincidetially: [img1]

I think, with that pictures, it is clear. Notice the rear view mittors, taped on the T-Bar of the roof 😉

Actually, your Messerschmitt looks fine to me - you did a good job fixing it. In the end, the important bit is to ask yourself if you had fun working on it and if you are happy with the end result. If the answer is yes, then I would call that a success!
I love the rear vie mirrors taped to the roof. Out of the box thinking! 🙂

Absolutely agree!
The mirrors get this "glass"-thing and that should overlay the missing paint on this spots.

Welcome Torsten & Robert!
I've started the fuselage assembly and clamps were needed.
27 July, 15:43

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

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.

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.

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

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… 😁

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…
16 August, 17:41
![](/profiles/img/11761-776-s.jpg)
Nathan, 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.
16 August, 17:47
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
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.

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

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

The second color has been applied. Slow going here as my workbench time has been lacking.
25 August, 14:13
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
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, 17:32
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
Well my gloss black was solidified, so flat black will have to do. Hopefully it will all even out when the clear is applied

Thanks Jennifer and Villiers!
Work continues on masking these tiny sections.
30 August, 16:13
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
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.

Today has seen the underside color selected and applied (Tamiya X-14 Sky Blue) along with masking/painting the cowl colors using Steel & Red.
4 September, 13:58
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
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.
