The pit is almost finished. Next steps are glueing the remaining pe parts, a clear coat and a wash.

Nice start on that cockpit, Sören! And an interesting plane. I'll be tagging along, mate!😉

An X plane ! Exactly my kind of topic, what do you think of the kit ?

So far it looks nice:
It will probably need some filler and sanding like the X-1, but the dry fitting didnt show anything serious

Welcome Dave😉
The pit is now finished and its time for my favorite step - filling and sanding 🙂
Sadly this kit probably needs a lot of it.......

Thx Bart😉 This one is currently a bit on hold, because the Tunnan needs to be finished first.

Ach Quartsch, ausserdem bist Du ja noch garnicht fertig und kannst jetzt aus meinen Fehlern lernen 😉

Two / Three tiny spots are still need some attention, but I hope to fix these soon, so that I can start with the paintjob.

Thx Oliver and Stephan!
I hope that this one will turn out ok in the end!
Simple kit but still a lot of work - for me anyway. 😄

Of course à lot if work!
But you know Whats possible with this Kit 😛

Its called black basing
doogsmodels.com/2014..hnique-black-basing/
I just used different colors underneath to create some color variation

Thx Jim and Holger
@ Jim
Give it a try. Its easy to achieve and the result looks more convincing than normal pre shading for example😉

Splendid preshade technique... I use this method on white aircraft (with the different colors, minus the black borders in between, just the panels in different pale colors)

Thank you Bart and Stephan.
I'm a big fan of black basing.
Sure normale Pre-Shading with Black over the Panel Lines is probably much easier and faster, but I dont like the "chessboard" look in the end 🙂

Thank you Spanjaard & Torsten
@ Torsten
Mach das und berichte mal davon.
Ich bin absolut überzeugt von der Technik und finde den Effekt sehr cool - siehe letztes Bild

Damit ich es noch besser nachvollziehen kann, Du sprühst oder malst die Farben mit dem Pinsel? Sind das Metallfarben? Schon mal Danke im Voraus!

Thank you Katya 🙂
@ Torsten
Das ist alles per Airbrush gemacht - 0,2er Düse und dann halt in unterschiedlichen Farben gesprüht - in diesem Fall waren es unterschiedliche grau und braun Töne.
Zum Schluss dann mit der Hauptfarbe hochverdünnt und in einzelnen Lagen drüber gesprüht, dass der Effekt darunter nur noch leicht zu sehen ist.
Das ganze nennt sich "Black Basing"

The decals are done to 99% - one "Hakenkreuz" is missing - and I have to repaint one panel at the engine in aluminium

Oh wow, looking great! I should probably try this kit again at some point, to replace the mess I made of it last time...

Fantastic looking Heinkel, Soeren! The burnt metal effect on the exhausts looks great!

Thanks Katya and Gordon
@ Katya
You should - I think its a great kit to test new techniques and stuff like that

I suspect I could do a far better job now I have an airbrush! Oh if I might ask, how did you make the holes in the wings for the engines to fit into? I remember having a lot of trouble with that.

Thanks Erik - Really happy that you like it 🙂
@Katya
I drilled holes around the inner edges of it - I use this tool for my models: ak-interactive.com/p..-hobby-pin-vise-set/ - and after that I used a hobby knife to clean the edges of the hole.

Aha, I do have a pin vise, but I think it is much smaller than this... it's something to think about though!
10 September 2019, 16:05
![](/profiles/img/16303-647-s.jpg)
As long as the drills are smaller as the hole, it doesnt matter how big the vise is😉
You need do drill several holes around the edges and then remove the remains with the knife
