Well, from what I remember, a :quotes: happy accident :quotes: is how the potato chip was created... :hmm:

It's looking great Kenny!! I use "black basing" as well. I think it worked well on my Rafale M.

Nice progress on the 109. I am with you, sometimes just a little weathering is all it needs.

God, family, models.

On deck: Something Luftwaffe...
In the hole: Something Luftwaffe I’m sure!

Yes, some subjects need restraint... others should be pristine... and others well worn...

Medic, that’s looking pretty dead-on to me. You finished that piece well. That’s the kind of thing I’m shooting for, realism and appropriate wear and tear. Man that came out lovely!

Mr. Mopar- thank you!!

Duke, always a pleasure when you stop by and thanks for the good word! I’m enjoying the hell out of this one, man. These Tamiya Emils are just a pleasure to build and I’ve been wanting to do this aircraft for many months. I’m glad I pulled it off the shelf and started it.

Thank you Duke!

I got the camo started today after the gym. Have a look:

This went well. No major problems or issues. I’ll probably complete it and seal it tomorrow, or Saturday depending on how busy work is. I’m on-call this week and I’ve been working odd hours. Get paged-out at 4AM, sign on, work into the morning, go to the gym or work on my models during lunch, then it’s quiet at work and I can do my regular stuff, then BOOM! Everything blows up about 5 minutes past Miller Time LOL I can’t complain too much. It’s good to be gainfully employed.
