First stage is to apply a primer layer of Tamiya extra fine primer and then a layer of Alclad Aluminium. Next, high wear areas were dabbed with Maskol such as the wing root area and the lower surfaces only were preshaded. Shading on the upper surfaces will be achieved through post shading later.
With this left to dry I turned my attention to the Mastercasters figure. The kit does contain a seated and a standing figure but it is dressed in a European battle dress which is not really appropriate for this scheme so… I do like a figure with an aircraft, I just find they give it a sense of scale and if painted well can really bring it to life.
