Brian that radiator really makes it for me. Somehow actually looks more modern then a real Buffalo - despite the spats  ;)

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

How did you manage that tight demarcation on the mottled paint job without making it too tight of a sharp line?  Did you simply use tape or were you extremely careful with the brush-jabbing along the demarcation line?

No tape was used in this build. I was just very careful applying the mottling. I called it jabbing but it was more like slowly dabbing. I would hold the brush close to the model and get a sense of how far out the bristles would splay and then dab on the paint. Having the light against dark gray as a guide really helped.

Forget the plane, put up pictures of Miss Chau-Mein!  :D

Great job! The spats and the grill really make it. :bow:

In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

What a load of bollocks, everyone knows fortune cookies are an American invention :P

The model though is bloody marvelous, another BdB masterpiece.

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid
