I still can't believe it's in 72nd scale.
Re: 1/72 Airfix HE-111
Thanks again dudes! 
Finally squeezed in some bench....er...booth time!
Painted the basic camo (RLM65/70/71). It's a bit sloppy at the belly line, but that matters not!
Earlier today, when I got home from some runnin around....I heard the rumble!!!!
It's that time of year again!!!
(Also had a P-51 fly over at work, last week!)

Got some more bench time today!!!
Painting is done!
This is what I'm going for....
After a gloss coat and dose of hair spray, I sprayed a light grey...
I used some water and still brush to take away most of the paint on the wings...I got excited and went right back to painting without taking anymore pics, until the end.
Anyway, after the hair spray/chipping...I sprayed some more light grey, randomly, then moved on to the black.

That is one helluva paint job! Can't wait to see it all come together. I've never seen a camo scheme like that before.

Thanks again guys!
Been busy as all get out...which is a good thing, now that I work for myself! Gave myself a day off to get a little time at the bench!
Very little marking for this...masked and painted the fuse cross and "E"...
A little more paint with a tiny brush...
Glossed up too...for all two decals!

Nice! Good to hear bidness is good.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
