IMHO you can't beat Tamiya AS-12 Bare-metal silver decanted and sprayed through the airbrush. I use it as the base coat for all silver or Bare metal finishes.

Some links to good guides would be great. All Iv';e seen are ones where people have struggled with the kit. It looks like typical Revell. OK but not great, and built to a price point.

Some info on my blog on Haseagwa spare parts http://hamfisted-modeller.blogspot.com/2019/04/getting-spare-parts-hamfisted-modellers.html

I often mask Mr Color within minutes of finishing painting . Especially in Summer where is seems to dry within seconds. The only time I've ever had Mr Color be puled up by tape is where I've used hairspray underneath it to do some chipping .

great idea, well executed. You should take some photos against the sky.

Just the overall finish, It didn't help I broke them installing them so had to do some repairs.

It's part of a old Two Mikes set Ray

I finished this quite a few months ago. But I was faffing around with backgrounds trying to get some decent photos. Finally got something I liked. All the details of the build and my thoughts on the kit are at my blog But in summary. Good kit but showing it's age. I'm happy with most of it bar the exhausts (For such a prominent feature I didn't do a good job on them) and the canopy (crap design). Lots of photos at the blog but here's a couple of photos

Great pic's Gary

Wow that looks amazing
