Spraying with AK Real Colour and about 9-10 psi. What a difference, went down smooth, no tip dry.

Mind you I did get a little over exuberant, have to work on my technique a bit more.

Just have to apply the anti glare to the top front/back of the fuselage and the identification bands on the wings. Then onto decaling and more weathering.

In the middle of decaling. Cor Blimey Guvnor I fort Tamiya decals were tricky, the pooling is decal softener. Hasegawa decals are a another level. Soaking them till the card goes flat on my cutting mat, putting them on the model, trying to paint on the softener and leaving for about 30 mins before rolling out, as trying to roll them out on application just moves the decals about.

Well this took me back to the Seventies. Without the teenage angst, spots and lusting after Angela McCabe, but with gluey fingerprints, bits snapping off, dodgy masking and props dropping from centre.

Inspired by the Japanese builds of John Mulholland, Aman S and Guy Rump and a slice of Seventies nostalgia of building these kits and shopping at Romer Parrish the only shop in the Boro' to be able to buy Hasagewa, Tamiya kits. These were an eye opener after a diet of Airfix, Revell.
