Hi Mal!
Tasty, tasty, very, very tasty... etc. etc.!
Oh boy does that look good! As a newbie, I'd missed out on previous posts about your Corsair. That's a beauty! (I hope your Hurricane isn't THAT good - Donner und Blitzen!)
I've been using your "use a paint-brush" technique to Klear-coat a certain '109 - looks good so far... with no "sand-paper" or "orange-peel" effects!
Keep 'em coming

Give it up, Porky, All Mal's birds are that good. Even when he's using inferior equipment for his air supply, he's better than a lot of us. Oh well, somehting to strive for.

Hehe, Thanks Rowan. If you alter the filter at the top of board, to aircraft, you will find alot more :-) Unfortunately most of them are missing the pics now because I have had to empty my folder about 5 times now, to make room for new ones.
I have warned all you 109's to watch out Seriously Rowan, having seen your 109 I think you are definately "up there". :-) Glad you have found that brushing Klear works for you, far less hassle than airbrushing :-)

Flatery will get you, almost, anywhere There not that good :-)

Hi Mal
Thanks for the kind words... if the '109 is anything like up to your standard, I'll be a very happy bunny indeed!
In fact I'll be delighted (amazed) just to actually finish it, because pretty much everything I touch lately joins a growing pile of unfinished kits. The fact I'm having such fun and have never been more engrossed in a model is really thanks to you, and everyone else on Armorama who have given me such a warm welcome and encouragement.
Thankyou all! These first couple of weeks at Armorama have really been great!
Cheers
Rowan
