I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Soon to be the P-39Q15 of Maj. Grigoriy Andrrevih Rechkalov of the russian 16GIAP. Trying to locate stars for decaling his 56 kills and a better replica of his initials.

Original Yellow ochre and black mixture produced an olive color that dried over night much darker than the first photo I posted. By adding varying degrees of tan rather than white or more yellow, I faded the Cobra's individual panels. One more application of the original base color lightened just a touch and watered down should tie it all together nicely.

Moostang's version of a worn wing surface. The few blemishes in recessed panelines will be touched up with thin CA, covered with future acrylic, then washed with...who knows? My thanks to DD for a great lesson on how colors actually work.

Installed hydraulics, electric and prop shaft in front wheel well. Running out of things to do. Need more Chartpak tape for balance of panel lines prior to final paint. Getting very antsy!!!!

Two additional coats of light gray primer installed over the tape. Will lightly sand to expose the chrome tape and then remove. It better work. If it does I'll follow with the remaining surfaces.

Substitiuted very thin clear styrene and formed the cardstock parts applicable to a Q version.

For Brian. Took a lot of sanding, filling and shaping to get the fillet to this point. The 1/32 tape will be scaled recessed panel lines.

While the filler in the reconstructed wing fillets sets up, had the time to carve and install a better air intake.

The underside of this bird was quite challenging to make work. The wing fillet tie ins are a PIA. If you build per plan you will end up doing it over. Other than that this 800 series kit like the Mossie is great.
