WiP-1 : Revell 1/72 Focke-Wulf TL Jaeger "Flitzer"
Well after the MiG incident I am determined to get a model finished before it gets chucked or eaten by the dog (seriously!). So I done some work on the Flitzer, this plane was a small one when you compare it to other WWII fighters. I'm not too sure what colours to paint it, as technically I can paint it in anything and it wont be wrong as this plane never existed. Not sure if I wanna try mottle'ling (is that even a word?!) it or not.
Got the wings done and the tailbooms. Last plane I made with Tailbooms was an P-61 Blackwidow, wish I still had model. Was a cool little thing. I superglued the wings on in the hope that the glue would act as an filler for the wings. It kinda worked. I need to use some filler on this tho. No bigger, just trying to cut a corner.
And the other side, I do get the impression that this plane would of been a mean little bastard had it ever reached production. I guess it's good that it never was given that chance...
And the wheel bays, this is the colour that Revell suggest... not too sure myself, but meh it's a colour that works. I need to "dirty" it up a bit and I have some new toys for that, just gotta work out how to use them I guess. More to come later on.
Peace!
