Another one close to finished.
RAAF 1 Communications Flight
Some cunning masking got the fin flash and underwing roundels done without the need for decals.
Just needs a scratchbuilt tropical filter, some detail paint and a few decals.
As with the P-39 repaint, this one needs some weathering, exhaust stains etc. The decals were out of the spares box. They were very thick and didn't settle over the fuselage form very well (even with setting solution) so are likely to split and flake at some stage. Time will tell.
I still want to scratch build the tropical filter for it as well; a job for later.
Hurricane wash and weathering
And gets a new chin.
Canopy needs a bit of an update too
Finally finished this one as well.
Filter done and the canopy touched up; and a final matt coat.
