Re: Bolleken's 1:72 stuff
The last days except from a business trip to Munich the das before yesterday, I spent my time on the Me 262 and the NMF sections. After painting the black primer on the tail I applied some silver coats in different shadings. Now each panel needed to be masked to paint the edges or seams in RLM 02. That took a looooong time. Here is the masking result. Hope it looks convincing after applying that paint.

Thanks Duke. RLM 02 is applied by airbrush. I like it änd I am looking forward to the next steps.

Very sharp looking indeed! Not your average ordinary 262!

Brilliant work! This almost looks like the real thing under construction somewhere in Germany. Way to go for capturing that realism.
