Thanks BS214. I did spray outside. I think I will try your recommendation of spraying in the morning.My thoughts exactly. High humidity and temps outside can wreck havoc with a rattlecan. Did you spray outside? Primer wouldn't be a factor for the bubbling/orange peel.
We get humidity in NY during summer months. If I need to spray outside with a rattlecan, I'll do it early morning or wait til it cools down at night; if possible.
My advice would be spray in several light coats instead of two - at least four would have been suffice if possible. Maybe three at best.
That's gonna take a whole load of paint. Better get another order in to tamiya..... PMI have to fuselage and wing halves put together. I will work on each separately since they are so big.
Masking the canopy now.

Yes. A bit more sanding is needed.looks like a bit more sanding and it will be seemless, looking good
That's alot of great detail, looking sweet. PM
I have a feeling those extra propellers aren't extra. One set is for when it's parked the others when you're flying. Variable pitch propellers. I might be wrong but it sounds good to meThe propeller is broken. It came out of the box that way. But for some reason I have 8 propellers in the box so I'm good.
That's why they had the crawl tunnel from the flight deck to the rear deck.My dad says on one mission a guy fell out of the bomb doors, gone.
yeah in the B52 later he called it the catwalk just a narrow access. I dont remember exactly what happened if it was a stuck bomb or what, i will ask him again.That's why they had the crawl tunnel from the flight deck to the rear deck.
