Holger KranichNa das war schon mal ein ordentliches Stück arbeit! Hast Du die Kanten mit Dymotape gerade gehalten? Sieht echt gut aus!

Burkhard DSchau ich mir an. Ist ein schöner Bausatz, den ich auch noch im Stapel habe. 🙂

Bernd KorteBackdating the Revell kit to an early D took quite some time. All the more as I want to try Alcclad for the first time and therefore needed to be extra careful preparing the model surface. Some tests with Alclad on the drop tanks showed the color lifts off with the masking tape (Tamiya) 🙁 Any suggestions what to do?

Christian BruerHi Bernd, mmhhh, I used Alclad on my scale 144 DC-5 and masked the paint intensively using Tamiya tape. I sprayed a layer, waited for some minutes than I add masks for the next layer in a different shade. No paint lift off!
I cleaned the surface before with lighter fluid, then I add several thin coats of grey Alclad primer. The base coat was sanded and polished before I add the first layer of NMF.

By the way, take car using Softener!
Hope that helps
Cheers, Christian

Bernd Kortemmh...I did clean the surface and used Alclads's grey primer, too + sanded it with Micro Mesh. I'll do some more tests and hope it will work better this time.

Bart GoesaertI tend to stick to the black primer from mr surfacer or just Tamiya gloss black. First I spray the surface with just isopropylalcohol, or I rub them with Formula MC and let it air dry

Bernd KorteHi Bart! Thanks for the tips! I wanted to buy the black glossy primer from Alclad but it was out of stock at that time so I went for the grey one. Black primer from Mr Surface sounds good. I'll buy it when I get a chance.

Bernd KorteNow that I have applied Alclad how do you feel about sealing it with Future? I have the urge to protect the Alclad coat somehow before masking, painting and weathering. On the other hand I read the metallic effect would get lost when you apply any clear finish.

Bart GoesaertIn my albums of the fouga and the academy Spitfire I've used Tamiya clear for sealing. I've got a dull alu-finish, which I found usefull to replicate older aircraft

Bart GoesaertAlclad has some clears to which are very good, but enamel based, so you can't use oil based washes

Dave FlittonWatching! Did you find that the fuselage was skewed to the left or right? I have heard complaints.

Bernd Korte@Bart: When possible I try to avaoid enamel finishes. I think I will just try Future and see how it turns out.
@Dave: No, I didn't have any problems like that.

Dave FlittonGood, I am glad. Hate to see all this work if there is an uncorrectable warp waiting. Watching with baited breath

Christian BruerHi Bernd, as mentioned before take care with softener! If you want to use softener you should seal the NMF with a coat of gloss varnish. I guess Future should work well without ruining the NMF effect.
I just tried Vallejos NMF paint, it is a nice paint easy to apply and they have special varnish to cover the paint. But the paint is not as resistant as Alclad against masking.

Alexander GrivonevShe's coming alive! Looks fantastic with the decals applied!

Stefan SchachtHi Bernd, the Thunderchief looks very good so far, I take a seat. Cheers Stefan

Alexander GrivonevThat's a fine looking Thud! I think the metal finish is on point, not too shiny, not too dull. It has this "used" look. Nice work!

Oliver ZwienerKlasse Ding - wozu so eine Auszeit doch alles gut ist. Ich bewundere Deine Geduld für das Gravieren - top. Was kommt als nächstes ?

Bernd KorteThank you all for your comments 🙂 I'm just glad it's finished now after this long time - so I finally got to choose the next project!

Bernhard SchrockErstaunlich, was man aus einem betagten Kit alles zaubern kann🙂. Great NM-finish & overall result.

Spanjaardrespect indeed. i dread doing that, and you re-scribed the whole thing....
very nice result with alclad. specially if it was first attempt!

Bernd KorteThanks for all your comments! I have to admit I'm pretty relieved that I don't have to rescribe my next project, though 😄

DutchBernd, I just discovered your build and I must say it is very nice! Beautiful work! I want to do the same thing, an early F-105D in duraluminum finish with live drab anti-glare panels & TAC lightning bolt on the tail! How did the old Microscale decals hold up?

Bernd KorteThanks guys! I'm not sure what the Doge thing means, though. But thanks 😄
