With some luck, paint any day now. Same problem here with the paint, need to mix the top and lower camouflage on this lassie. Humbrol gives it as 6*Hu:34 (white) + 2*Hu:41 (ivory)....

So your Carrier Air Group is progressing well then?!!

Lucky13 · 06-29-2009, 07:26 AM

Getting there old boy. Just to do something about the Insignia White and Blue Grey for the old girls.....

Catch22 · 06-29-2009, 11:49 AM

Can you get model master there Jan? They have the Blue Gray in their line, I used it for the -1.

Lucky13 · 06-29-2009, 12:49 PM

Look bleak C... Didn't find much of MM, will keep looking though. Still, have Vallejo Dark Blue Grey, so just adda suitable light colour and voila'! (I hope)...

Thanks for the headsup though!

Oh, yeah....painted the lower camo today, the white must have past its best before date, because it was driving me up the wall....

It is a test Jan...a hurdle you must overcome, young Jedi...

Airframes · 06-29-2009, 11:37 PM

'Young' Jedi?! Trainee Jedi maybe, but YOUNG!!??

Lucky13 · 06-30-2009, 07:40 AM

Let it mature for a day or so before some masking....

Yup Terry, old boy.....Y-O-U-N-G!
