Especially when they obliterate details like the raised rivets and hydraulic lines like in this case.

The detail in the bays is pretty much intact...the raised detail on the doors.....well, took the lot off, at the end of the day, nobody's gonna take any notice of what may have been there....

Thanks Keith!

Evan, the colours mentioned for this type of overspray pattern are RLM 02 'Grey' or RLM 76 'Lt. Blue-Grey'

From available photo's of late war He111's it looks like RLM 76 to me......

got the wings together and in the sanding phase....

Looking good Wayne!

What do you reckon of the scheme Keith found? Looks like the wave pattern camouflage similar to that used on Fw 200s and other ocean-going aircraft...unusual to see it applied on the upper surfaces though.

When I was working on my Widow, I lost a few raised details also but I figured out how to put them back with tape and elmers glue. I just masked the area I wanted a line and put a line of glue down. Once the glue was set, I pulled up the tape the the detail was restored. Works ok with rivets to but apply with a needle tip so the dot isn't too big. As always, experiment first but if it doesn't work right, a cotton Q-tip and water will remove it.

Great idea mate!

I've missed out on this for awhile Wayne, but cracking job so far. It looks fairly hefty, and I'm trying to visualise the bulk of the beast in 1/32nd scale.....!
