WHAT A COMBINATION (sic)

i thought that the lead pellets were covered with something trasparent like white glue or superglue. Looked that way otherwise they would not stay in place like that. But putting in some sort of covering will not harm anything.

Gordon...Ray is right....it happens...I've seen it in my earlier models....by the work nice detail....some washes and subtle drybrushing will enhance it more

Why exactly is this necessary?

adrian , lead like most non ferrous metals have a tendency to secrete acidic "sweat" once they start to oxidize, particullarly in humid environs such as the one we live in. these secretions or corrosion are particularly damageing to paint. hence the need to envelope the lead balls or any other metal for that matter,in miliput or similar so that corrosion is contained. superglue by itself is not enough on the contrary it may even hasten the process

now enough tech talk. always seal metal weights inside models or you might regret it later

Hazin mela siehbi!
i have alot of models filled with lead bullets or lead fishing weights. there are a number which i painted over in acrylic. why? no reason really i just felt like doing it. i hope that helps in the end.

One thing is, after glueing the (old) lead bullets to the model, i often got a slight greenish/copperish discharge on the glue.. but it never spread!

Is it necessary to cover even small bolts and nails??

Looking very neat Gordon, as a Civilian Aircraft should look

Would be nice if you can get it ready for the Expo!

Very nice, sharp and clean work so far! I like it!

Alex and Joseph, i did not wash it because it will be closed and therefore its interior will not be so visible.

I wish you luck when it come to painting the white

Where is your Viking build??

only half of the cockpit will be visible but since the entry will be open i will be doing all of it

Coming along very nice indeed. I admit the interior won;t show much but the cockpit section will through the clear glass on the front.

Impressive to say the least Gordon, and I'm not refering to the cool scheme only your finish looks the part welldone eh

Great finish Gordon, I love the sheme


Wil
