Those pilots !! I want to have your recipe 🙂

I usually use MRP gloss first after decal, that seals the film much better than a semi matt or matt coat. Then I repeat the process with semi matt which I love

looking great Steve. So far I'm really convinced with your choice of colors

Well done, the colour choice is very convincing so far. Now I want to get my F-16 out of the stash 🙂

Great work prepping this one for paint. It's a long and time-consuming process but well worth the extra care. This is going to turn into a great in-flight display Steve. I like the hue of the test paint on the intake, based on the picture I feel it's quite close to the real deal. Have fun with the next part, it's certainly going to be one of the best part of this project 🙂

A pleasure to follow this one Steve, you're doing great job !!

Hello Gents, I'm studying my Tamiya 1/48 F-35B kit with a US Marines launch from the deck. Tamiya gives you 3 positions for the engine, and I wonder about the short take-off launch position. They set that to 30° and I wonder if that is accurate From their boxart and most of the picture online, it seems the nozzle is rather at 45° than 30°. I wonder what's the right setting for a flat deck launch (Us Marines) Or is that a function of gross weight? or does it changes during the launch? 30° first then 45° when leaving the deck? or can the 30° come from the

i'll be curious to see the final result of that have glass paint, it's always a challenge

Definitely my type of Hog. She looks great The only feedback I could offer is that I feel you have been a little shy on the gun weathering on the sides compared to the belly weathering. But I love the extra sand/dust spot weathering on top. It's a fine A-10 model, congrats

Great work !!

Love it as well. Great Growler

Nice progress, slowly getting there Steve. These wingbags looks great and heavy 🙂
