Comet Corsair by scigs30. Viewed 846 times. Build Thread Next Prev Click image to return. Image Comments scigs30 24-Jun-10 19:29 Finished the painting using Design Masters paints. The paint added just over 2 grams to the weight, not too bad. This plane has removable landing gear for flight, but could also fly with the landing gear. I still have to spray glosscote then apply the decals and spray dullcote. Then I will attach the canopy. Part of me is thinking I should just leave these old comet kits white and apply the decals. I think it is kind of neat to show off the Comet structure with the original Comet white tissue. What do you all think? pakasit1812 25-Jun-10 01:48 Hard to say which one is better. Painted or White looks nice in it's own way.I have a declination on the painted. CPN 25-Jun-10 05:29 Every once in a while it can't hurt to leave one unpainted - your structures are perfectly straight and true - why hide that? My models need all the paint they can get. From time to time I'll leave a model of a plane that was finished as bare or polished aluminum unpainted and add the accents like decals, antiglare panels, wingwalks, control surface lines etc. P-51s are good candidates for this treatment. Silver paint magnifies every wrinkle to the point where it usually (in my case) looks worse painted. Please sign in to comment on this image.
