More from Old 'Nick'

I deliberated for a while on wiring in the engines. It seems pointless adding unseen detail as the cowling appears quite closed, but I went with it. I think it was worth the effort, as you can see in the photos. The engine detail is already superb and the wiring just adds the finishing touch. Assorted metal shades amd dark brown paint really bring out the detail.


Moving on, with the camouflage complete but still masked , 'Nick' is about to receive its decals. Careful application of greens and browns, applied with the airbrush turned right down, make for a subtly weathered appearance. More later.
