| moostang51 | 28-Apr-07 18:35 | | Really like the detailing. Are the letter markings dry rub off or stenciled or what? Wing attachments, straight glue ups? Com'on give it up......... |
| Xanadu | 28-Apr-07 23:21 | | If I recall correctly, David does all his "marking" by hand, making stencils and painting them on.

| David Duckett | 29-Apr-07 10:12 | | In this case all the letters and numbers are decals from various Guillows kits. The ones on the fuselage came from kit #902 Bird Dog, those on the wings are from kit #905 Mustang, and the small rescue under the cockpit window is from kit #904 Skyraider. The other red stripes and the white one on the wings came from the Italieri A 20 plastic kit which gave me the nosewheels for the B 29 and the tailwheel for the Typhoon. The two black circles on the wing are from the Guillows Corsair and the red dot was made from an extra British roundel and a hole punch. The black stripe above the windows is 1/8" striping tape made by Great Planes. Other black striping is done with Chartpak 1/64" and 1/32" tape. All decals were sprayed with clear acrylic " satin" spray. Oh, and yes the wing does just glue on. |
