[quote="MartinJQuinn"]That looks great, but the thought of painting it scares me! :heh:[/quote]

Thanks....and you are not the only one to be scared :scratch: :big_grin:

[quote="Jon C Ryckert" ice work. Would you please tell me what UV resin you prefer to use? Thanks[/quote]

Green stuff world clear UV RESIN. It 's a clear resin in a Black bottle that you place on a model in thin layers and then you harden it with UV light.
And that's it

That looks great, but the thought of painting it scares me! :heh:

[quote="TF17Greg"][quote="StevenVD"]Nice work. There seem to be a lot of clearparts, wouldn't it be easier to work with Micro Crystal Clear?[/quote]
Dear Steven I could have used micro cristal clear but l prefer to use UV clear resin that ardens with uv light and give a "glass" look.
Thanks for looking and for your kind comment, stay tuned more to come[/quote]

[quote="marijn van gils"]Great work! That island looks beautiful! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

Would it be possible to add the UV windows after painting (they look very good!)? That would of course avoid a lot of masking. But maybe it needs to be done from the rear of the PE window frames?[/quote]

Thanks for your kind comment

Unfortunately it's impossible to reach the 3 structures so...masking tape would be my friend... :crazy:
:big_grin: :woo_hoo:

[quote="FFG-7"]I see you added the battle lookout to the front of the pilot house that you did not have in the previous pictures. when did you release it was missing?[/quote]

You have an eagle eye....well l saw it on an original picture and l wanted to put it in.
Luckly l built it because when I was measuring its position l noticed the mistake in the pilot house.
I made the correction and i dry fitted the battle lookout...
