These are not enamel paints but lacquers. Enamel pigments with lacquer base to be precise. Unfortunately I can't be much help, but from my few experiences in the past couple of months, I haven't noticed any problem with durability (masking or weathering) and I am also using Mr Surfacer as primer. It is true, though, I haven't used Polished Alu, but a normal one. Maybe these paints are like Alclad's Hi-Shine line more prone to rubbing off?

Great job! Wish they'd transfer at least a part of these colourful markings to the F-14.

I had a little inside view of the judging 'cause I'll likely be one of the judges next year. But basically, you have different categories of the build that are scored 1-5... There are three judges judging. The scores of all the aspects are entered into the computer at the end and it basically divides the total score by the number of categories judged (for example one aircraft had weapons, the other didn't - one was on the base, the other didn't - everything gets judged and total score divided accordingly to get the final percentage of total possible score. I am not sure what % is required for

they did that fence design on their earlier 17s and from my experience with the M3, it might not be the best solution. I remember I had quite some clean up to do.

A tale of two Tomcats - GWH 1:72 F-14D buddy build
Sebastijan replied to Sebastijan's topic in The Display Case
Thank you, guys! Actually we both used same paints - Mr.Paint Medium Grey, Dark and Light Ghost grey. The major difference was me using the black surfacer as primer, while Mitja used grey one, which created some difference in the finished look. -
1/72 Zvezda Mig-21bis : Finnish Air Force
Sebastijan replied to amato1969's topic in The Display Case
Beautiful Finnish MiG! I had Zvezda kit but sold it, as I was anticipating Eduard will release it 😞 -
Thank you, Frank!

In December, one of the guys in a modelling group I am part of, gave an idea - let's do a "One week wonder" group build - you've got the first week of 2024 to start and finish a kit from your stash. I was up for the challenge and picked up HobbyBoss' easy kit F-84. It's not a bad kit per se and it has a few weak points but for a price for around 5€/$, it's hard to complain. Decals come from Hi-decals and represent one of the 34 of Imperial Iranian Air Force F-84Gs. Link to the article and full gallery: https://vvsmodelling.com/2024/01/08/republic-f-84g-thunderjet/
