Fiddlers Green

Hi,
I am new to this site,,,and posting stuff too.
HOPE THIS WORKS.
Here are two ducks I have built.
One with the canopy,,,and one with the pilot and gunner.
I detailed them with magic markers.
The only thing I don't like about using magic markers for detailing is they bleed into the papers cut edges.
If anyone has a better idea for detailing,,,PLEASE let me know.
These aircraft were fun to build and went together nicely.
I look forward to any comments,,, pro or con.
Thanks,
musicman

Great job Musicman! The Duck is one of the more difficult models here, so I really look forward to see what you come up with next.

As for the edge coloring, I know some folks here use either water color pencils like Prismacolor, or use pastels or pastel pencils. These usually have most any color you would need, and they blend into the paper very well.

Good work musicman . I'm one of those that willy mentioned who use watercolour pencils. Like you, I found that marker pens tend to bleed too much. Look forward to seeing more from you.
