WiP (FOW): flyers

Nearly finished the zveda Stuka and IL2 for FOW at at 4 euro a pop what can go wrong :)


I made some minor adjustments before painting. For the propeller the three blades did not look like they would last long.  So I cut out a small circle of clear plastic from an old figure blister pack. Then using sand paper scratched in the blades. From the old propeller I broke of the blades then glue the cone to the clear plastics then glue that to the plane. The result is hopefully moving prop blades.






Painting method for the Stuka (V = Vallejo paints)
The model was primer grey
The top hlaf was painted German Dark camo green
The under carriage was painted a mix V white and V blue (4:1)
The wing tips were painted V flat yellow
The wheels were painted painted Black
The bomb was painted V German Grey
The decals were applied




Painting method for the IL2 (V = Vallejo paints)
The model was primer grey
The top hlaf was painted Russian green
The under carriage was painted a mix V white and V blue (4:1)
The decals were applied
