Painting & Decaling the wings
I bought Naval hexagon and clear doped linen decals from AVIATTIC. Both products are great and higly recommended. |
| I bought the printed naval hexagon decals. They are almost completely opaque and were applied over a white base coat. I used Mr.MARK SETTER for better adhesion. |
 |
| For Natural doped linen I opted for the translucent decals. I airbrushed the underpainting over a white base coat using different shades of tan color. |
 |
| Rib detail was done by masking off the ribs whith thin stripes of masking tape (0.7 mm). |
 |
| Close up showing the fabric effect of Aviattic´s decal. The decal film is thicker and more elastic than the solid naval hexagon decals. |
 |
| A teaser to keep the moral high. |
 |
| Floats are still missing. But it gives you an idea how the diorama will look when finished. |
