Would the colour of the wheel wells and air scoops for the radiators be grey (like the cockpit) of green?

Wheel wells would be RLM02. The interior of the radiator flaps would most likely be RLM 02 as well, but i've seen the lower ones painted RLM 76 or the same color as the underside of the airplane.

Dont know what I'm doing wrong, The first few pictures I posted came out larger and where they could be enlarged, since then they are all "thumbnail" size and wont enlarge. I've got the cut and paste down , but is it in the way I'm posting? Sure would like to show the larger ones.                   

What a talented group of builders here! I've seen some very impressive builds and am honored to be able to try and show my work. Thanks for the experiance of this group build, I've never done one before.

Finally free from the B-36 Whistling....... for now.

Started the Revell G-10, boy is the cockpit sparse but it's just what the Dr. ordered.

An update... finally!
Posted by Geof on Monday, May 28, 2012 1:14 PM

First let me say that all of the builds going on here are looking fantastic! I can't believe the build is going on 6 months already!

I was finally able to hit the bench a bit this weekend and mostly finish up this part of this project. I still need to do some final touches, then some more figures. Hope you like it!
