Re: Tamiya 1/48 F2A-2
Gary, Tom, Stuart, and Lyle, thank for your kind words. Just a tad bit more to get done before I get those masks off Lyle.
The past couple of days I was working on the panel line wash and getting those sealed up
Now I have just a bite more detail painting to do, the last small bits glued on, the masks removed, and adding an antenna wire.
Tomorrow…

She’s starting to look like a proper Pre-war bird. Can’t wait to her finished.

Somehow I managed to lose track of this one after you painted the engine.
Decals and panel wash really accent those yellow wings well, looks great!!

Re: Tamiya 1/48 F2A-2
Tom, Greg, and John, thanks for your encouragement and patience. 
As of this afternoon, I am calling this one finished. This morning I did the last bits of painting, took of the masks, and added the last little bits.
Tomorrow I’ll get a proper set of multi angle photos posted up…
