Another Naval Build - DH Sea Hornet NF.21 Part 2
After a little over a month away from the build (and feeling slightly demoralized by the B-29A build - blog entry to come), I felt it was time to complete the Sea Hornet..
Assemblies were given a wash in soapy water and allowed to dry. I then masked up the canopies and used foam to mask up the undercarriage bays..
Then painting could begin...
First up the Sky underside
Then I hand painted the undercarriage bays silver (as per the instructions) and once that dried masked up the assemblies that needed a top coat of Dark Sea Grey (this varies from era to era for the correct shade)
With masking removed, not much touching was needed (tail empernage fitted).
Inner wing sections added
Outer wings and assorted parts painted.
3 quarters of the transfers/decals added..
Just awaiting the handed props..
Props fitted and certain baby sister making a cameo of sorts...
Posing in the late afternoon sun..
Usually at this point I'd say 'that's it for now' But this time it isn't, as there'll be another blog entry coming later today
