🙂 JW, great film though and there should be a sequel.
@Arne. It's a mix of Humbrol aluminium 27001 & 27002, Humbrol Copper 12 and Humbrol Clear Orange 1322 in varying amounts as to what I thought I wanted. I'm really just playing with it and trying out styles and methods. The other striped colour is an enamel mission brown I bought from a hardware store mixed with a bit of black gloss. I'll add a black satin band alongside the brown on the wings near the fuselage. I'm sort of happy with where it's going, I'm learning, we never stop learning and sometimes you need to give yourself space to learn and experiment.
Kerry, kind words, thank you. "Clean lines" are indeed what she has, very elegant. I've been looking at the speed race planes of the 30's lately and been awed at their elegance which is what I see in this plane. She's beautiful. As a shipwright by trade I love clean lines.
Anyway, I'm having fun.
