Re: Wessex HAS.1 and HU.5 Commando

You have an incredible amount of patience and skill to do the canopies. Are they one piece, or panes glued into a frame?

The canopies are the kit ones masked with Tamiya Tape then a scalpel runaround the frames,peel off the spare paint all over then remove from the panes.Only takes around 10-20 mins to mask depending on the model (make that an hour for the Fairey Battle)

Absolutely fantastic work, sniperUK. I've always been rather fond of the good old Wessex - more fond now that I've seen your gorgeous renditions!
