Ajay, have you tried a cookie pan for making bases?
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Another question Ajay. Does the base dry out over time and crack?

Superb !
The work some of you do is humbling to us ham-fished, no talent, no patience, clods.
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

Its...It's...
It's amazing!
Wasn't real thrilled with the choice of paint scheme, but she turned out beeUtifull!
Thanks for letting us watch and pretend we could have once been that good.

I really liked her when she was clean, but she was too clean...but she wasn't. It's a weird transistion from freshly sprayed to dirtying up. Like, did i pick the right rocker covers or should i have left on the factory ones...more like tweaking your timing and getting that point gap sweet really and then having to tweak more after a quick run...and then you gutta pull the carby apart and check the float and change the valve...maybe i'll change the jets as well...oh shi't, the inside of the manifold looks a bit cast and yuk, maybe if i just debur it a bit, sand it and give it a quick polish. Where does it end.
I've been thinking i need to do more airbrush weathering by thinner and muckier shades/more layers so i can end up lighter on washes to rely on depth/scale/life of the model. Getting there with every kit though, slowly slowly, learny learny.

Smashing work as always Any chance to get a few pics of your IKEA cabinets with your private Air Force? Just curious about it. Cheers, Slug
