Kit # St 21 turns out to be a real nice kit with plenty of detail in the gear bay and pit. The engine leaves little to be desired but since it wont be seen but just for a few fleeting glimpses from the front. I chose to go with one of the obscure captured aircraft of JG 301 and from the little research I did I found out it is the Wilde Sau squadron.
I only have been on this since last night and maybe have about a total of 8 hours in it. It is a pretty simple kit and the way it goes together allows painting of a few large pieces as well as the pit details. Most every one knows that the pit is fairly cramped so there isn't usually much to display there.
I used the kits instrument decals on this ip, I thought they looked OK to me.
The engine, lower cowl and prop are mostly complete.
The gear bays are better than the last FW I built. It has plenty of surface detail to fill in with a wash.
Yellow 4 is the one I am going to try for and if that doesnt work then I figger sompin else out.
and you guys should be familiar with Eaglecals.
So I'll just keep going on with this one because I feel as if I got a good bit done and it is going very well.
I have a good feeling about this one.
