The
latest painting session came after I had moved all the trash barrels out to the
street and decided that since I was in the garage anyway, why not? Impulse is
the particular province of the retired.
Mostly
it was routine stuff that I did today. I wanted to get the front exhaust ring
on the Mc-200 painted, since I wanted to stop thinking about the complex
masking job around all those raised engine areas on the cowling. But it seemed
to go fine. Next comes painting the engine disk itself and adding the landing
gear.
I
decided to use X116 Green for the engine nacelles on the Fiat CR-25. It also
seemed a decent match for the upper surfaces of the I-16 Rata, so since the
airbrush was loaded I went ahead and shot that as well. Both seemed to be
smooth.
There
were matte topcoats to be done for two now-complete models. I’m running a bit
behind on getting the most recent completions written up but should be able to
catch up before the end of March.
