I think the trick with pre-shading is having the over colour thinned down quite a bit. It might take several passes with the airbrush over a couple of days, but its worth it.




Definitely I'm really impressed with it. I have a couple of night fighters and the Finnish bomber versions from ICM. Wish I had done a duel build also. The night fighter would have looked interesting alongside.

I removed the paint masks from the glazed areas and its looking not too shabby. There are a few bits that need a bit of attention, but it looks better than I imagined. The fit of the clear plastic parts is very good. The couple of decals I used for masks on the circular windows worked really well. They came away very easily.

I followed your build more or less silently, Tim. Very nice work on that Do!

I have the ICM Do-17 Z-2 here in 1/48, and it will get the Ilmavoimat decals I brought home from Finland last summer. Just don't know when I can start the build ....

Very nice!

Thanks Torsten and Damian, your comments are much appreciated

I think I going to call this build finished. Really enjoyed it and hope it inspire you to go out and acquire this excellent release. Thanks for following

Great build Tim, neat paint job and I really like the level of weathering!

Something that always bothered me about this aircraft variant, it looks like the brakes failed and it nudged into the hangar wall and pushed the nose in. It just looks too flat!

Looking forward to your next build mate.

Cheers, D

Stunning Build Tim!

Don't know how I missed it, but glad I found it

Thanks Damian and Russel your comments are much appreciated.




I know what you mean Damian. I think the aircraft looked its best as it was intended as a fast mail carrier or later as a night fighter
