I agree with Boots. It looks very good as it is.

It looks good to me, but using oils to change the tone is not such a difficult task.

Duke, Joe, Tommy, cheers chaps . I am still contemplating the colour change, I have found something that might do the trick  . Anyway, here' the spinner all painted up  Just need to sort the new prop out  . I cut, filled, sanded, primed and painted the wrong one  ,as I was stupid enough to remove the wrong one from the sprue  |

Boots, cheers and yes it bloody well is  . For some reason though it fit before paint, doesn't anymore Joe, thank you ole chap . To be honest I'd sooner paint them, rather than adding decals, decs can be a darned nightmare on these things Wouts, I am far from perfect mucker . Sounds like somebody else also made the same mistake . |

Wouts, I am far from perfect mucker . Sounds like somebody else also made the same mistake . Not with the spinner in particular but plenty with other bits and bobs. I regularly have my "D'oh" moments |

Matt and gloss?
What’s the thinking behind that decision, Paul?

Wouts, Boots, Tommy, cheers chaps . Tommy I haven't got any semi-gloss top coat. After discovering that the gloss on it's own, is way to slippery for oils to adhere to and after Wouts said, the Satin top coat is too matt to remove the oils, I decided to try a mix of my own . I have just made up a mix of 1 part matt, to 2 parts gloss. It's already sprayed on the 109 and I am waiting for it to dry . Will get a pic up later today. |
