This is painful to read....

Post by BlackSheep214 »

Although it is modelling related I found this through a newsletter I subscribe to (from WW2aircraft.net). This site does have their own forums. Read the thread started by one Justine and you'll see why. If you can't spell, why even bother? :bored: Really? "Semi-gloss enamil?" Stupidity at its best. : :headslap: headbang:

Spelling aside (I can hardly comment on that :bag: ), I"d have to question a lot of the advice on that - Spray enamels in one heavy coat because it eats the previous coat??? No it doesn't! The paint on that 911 looked like it'd been put on with a trowel.

And I loved the "the first thing to do is buy an airbrush" standard comment - at the moment I can't help thinking that adding another layer of complication would be a bad thing, besides, it would be perfectly easy to do a decent enough paint job by brush - Even on a 1\48 B-29.
