What a great/productive afternoon - got the Dk Earth on the Meteor, the Typhoon and the (real world) P-40. All sprayed absolutely perfectly (love a suitably thinned 50/50 Xtracolour/Humbrol mix, sprays a dream). Even managed to get the masking removed before I had to finish.

No pics till the morning - stupid job - but standby, I think these two will make you blink a wee bit !

That is looking good.  The paint job looks good and the preshading is still slightly visible on the darker brown. Should look really nice when you finish.

Would you mind providing a close-up or two of the demarcation lines?  I'm intrigued to see how your coil masking looks up close.  I'll be nice to you for a whole day if you do post some pics of this.   :thumbsup:

Same question as  for your P-40, ie the brown looks a bit purple  :huh:
