All of your work looks very good, Yu, I have some projects on "hold" so I think I'm still working on them, waiting for the right mood to complete them... So hopefully we will all be able to complete the projects we feel interested in completing.. (thus the hypocracy continues:D)

I like your Bismark YuG, and enjoyed your story about beginning this one 2-/1/2 years ago. I see what you mean about that paint scheme. It runs from the hull sides all the way up the superstructure. At 1/250 scale, this build must be over 35 inches long? (would that be 90 about centimeters?)

Nope, you've got eight going on now it seems and I've only got four at the moment.

The 1:250th aircraft are wonderful. I hope are able to finish those - and then an aircraft carrier to put them on :D

Hello Yu-san,

I'very impressed about your US-Navy birds; the Corsair are one of my favourites .. an old WHV fighter from the carrier FORRESTAL?

With lovely greetings
the Wilfried

Seeing European and American ship’s thread especially camo or bright color paint scheme, I got an urge to resume a build of this ship.
Taking two nights have hanger on port side done.

First picture:
Cut out all parts except for small parts that I make it a point to cut out just before assembly in fear of losing them.

Second picture:
Assembled all parts and glued in place

After taking photo I found deteriorated color where I built three and half years ago. Now I am pondering whether to keep on posting….. or refrain from taking picture up close or take picture under dim light…

Third picture:
This picture I took three and half years ago. Comparing this picture to second picture, color difference is obvious….:(

The colour difference is not all that obvious. The build looks great - there sure is a lot of detail even in that small area.

Have you tried using a spray artists fixative? Among other things, most prevent fading due to UV. I use Krylon's product.

When you have finished put in sunlight when the colours match then spray it with fixative
