As A change of pace from WW2 birds, I decided to try the Tamiya 1/48 Skyraider. An excellent kit in almost every regard, it was a pretty easy bulid. Yeah, I know the Spad was notorious for exhaust staining, but I like my shelf sitters clean. Other than accenting panel lines, I didn’t weather it much.
Looks gorgeous Rick!!! So that’s how they look clean, eh!!! LOL I worked on one last year, and ended up wiping the plane down with my clothes…needless to say it was still filthy, and so was I!!! Had to buy a new set of clothes after all that!!!
Beautiful job on the spad. It’s not the greatest looking plane ever but its got a certain purposeful look to it. great paintjob. Keep up the good work.
