Hi Guys,

This is the BeDeviler with the first coat of paint applied, I had ran into some trouble whilst applying the Gunze enemal paints, they are just aweful to spray. I had encountered the same sort of problem whilst doing the SKyraider. in any case, here is the picture, lots of follow up paint/correction needed

Lookin great so far Lord Davey But why did you have to paint an evil wingy thingy on top of a tank model box? That is sacralige I knee you #:-) (++)

Looks great so far ...I love that worn look of a patched up paint job...What kind of problems are you having with the Gunze paint?? I love the stuff I thin it with either Tamiya's thinner or with rubbing alcohol....I always thin my paint to the extreme 80% thinner to 20%paint but always get great results. Keep up the super work and keep the pictures coming!!

Rick

good one dave. How come you are having trouble spraying the paint?

I gotta agree with ya Chad,(I sometimes spray my Tanks on aircraft boxes) but hey thats not a crime.
Dave, is looking pretty good please can you tell us what problems you had.

Hi Dave

That's looking really good... but i'd love to know a bit more about your painting problems. I've only used Gunze's acrylics, and they're superb...

All the best

Dave, as always great work. I have to admit I kinda liked the shiney black it was before you painted and was expecting the Black Bunny Playboy paint scheme #:-) but this is still cool. Keep us posted and do tell us your paint troubles please .

Lord SS -

Trouble with the paints... say it isn't so.... lol It looks pretty darn good to me - wherever those pesky paints gave you trouble, it sure doesn't show!!!

I like the looks of the plane so far..... Atlantic Fleet Squadron? Nice Aircraft Build SS, showing your true talents........ :-)

Nelson

i like the look of this.. but it looks nothing like the beautiful tankdestroyer box it's sitting on.. did you get the wrong kit in the box? i'm confused.

Surely looking great (though i liked the tricky black playboy version), i will follow your postings on these

Lord Dave, Looking good so far, I agree with Witchking, some of the 'scrubby' look that Tomcats have would add a certain something. The panel shading has come out well, though I want to see how you resolve the tailfin problem, how about some close-ups to 'diagnose' what's wrong? Likewise, I am no fan of the Tomcat although a 'BombCat' loaded for bear is something worth seeing.... JIm

Major Goose, the 'black' finish was undercoating. Maybe I should post some pics of my M3a1 so you can suggest some Playboy bunnies for the auxiliary fuel tanks....

well Dave i was going to compliment you on the wonderful paint and shading job on this Cat. Looks pretty good from the pics. If you say it going to get better. I believe ya but you got your work cut out for yourself on that one.
Looks pretty impressive the way it sits now

Davidus Very nice Tomcat. Although as you know I only collect diecast of modern aircraft your efforts continue to impressme. I still shake my head in admiration on the amount of detail in that cockpit! I am sure that the level of quality shown on your previous aircraft will come through on this one. I cannot comment on your air brush and/or Gunze problems, but I am sure wit the amount of expertise on this site our mates can give you ample suggestions. Excellent work. (++)
