Not much of an update. Been working on all the "stuff" in the room. I move it to the left.....then move it to the right. Sort of like the Hokey-Pokey. I've about decided I need another small file cabinet or less stuff. Anyway, here is a slight update on the A-10. Nothing as cool as what you guys are posting. That is amazing work.
Fired up the airbrush, the Badger Patriot, for the first time in over two years. I did clean it in the ultra-sonic box a few weeks ago. There are some bits of splatter. Not sure why. I'll have to do some researchin' on that electric inter web thing. Basically, sprayed the gloss white in the gear bays, gear doors and struts.
Not at all happy with the wheels. Used Mr. Color Tire Black. Had not been opened in a while. In hindsight - too "gloppy". Should have thinned it. I'll be stripping the wheels and trying again.
Guess what I forgot to include when spraying? Yes, the nose gear strut and nose gear bay....guess I switch to the Iwata a/b and see if that still works.
Not happy with the wheels, I'll be stripping them and spraying
Also, not happy with the yellow on the boarding ladder. Since i have to display this with the canopy opened, . . Yellow is not orangy enough. I'll add a drop of orange and try again.
And, I've managed to misplace the nose wheel. Sigh. I've found a couple that will work. One is a bit smaller and one is a bit larger.
