    Default Repaint newbie

    Hi Group,

    I am considering to repaint some Ares Games airplanes, is there a good tutorial that I can use.

    I am a total newbie in matters of repainting models.

    One think I would suggest is to remove the top wing , it will help with the repaints/ decaling.
    Put the aircraft in the freezer overnight, then drop into a bowl of very hot, but not boiling, water, leave for a minute or so then gently prize up the top wing near the struts, the glue will crack and the wing will come off

    Hey Chris,

    No problems, I will eventually take the plunge into WW1, and then it will be very useful
