spitifire exhaust

[modellius]

And again a great set from Eduard Brassin, an Spitfire mk IX exhaust. At first sight this update is great and will give a fine " touch " on any Spitfire, the fine detailed mold gives a lot's of opportunity for nice painting/weathering, all you need is some skills and lots of time to get it right.

First I give it a coat of Valleyo chrome, to get the natural metal look :

A Revell clear blue cote followed to get the look of heated metal, I done it hardly visible at first sight, but it will give a right result when it's all done.....

Finally done, this exhaust set will be mounted in the spitfire I'm working on

so, a few words about this product. First thing that come on my mind is FANTASTIC !!! A very nice, easy to build, not over complicated and extremely fantastic shaped and produced exhaust set. As I said before, on the first sight the details looks amazing, but when painted and weathered it gets even better ! For conclusion, strongly recommended for anybody who likes to " get out more " from their models. I wish to thank No1 and Eduard for the tested product.

At the end, the use is very simple, all you have to do is to paint and weather the exhausts and its all done. After painting I used 4 different rust pigments and orange revell to dry brush the weldings, so here is the result

Yes, nice painting work but there is a problem; I agree with n°1: your exhausts are in the interior of the fuselage...

sorry, but i don't understood what you'r meaning. In the fuselage is only mounted the engine section of the exhaust, the " fishtail " will be applied after the painting of the spitfire. if this is what you'r suggesting

OK, I understand how you've worked on those parts.
Forget my previous comment
For myself I've mounted the exhausts in one element and will mask them before painting
