jrallman Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Hard to tell, but did you mask off too much of the front sliding canopy? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregax Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 Let me help you. I wrongly positioned the "notes" decal.... It shouldn't be that straight, but slightly angled. Don't worry, a friend of mine will send me new ones.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jrallman Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 see, now i feel like i was tricked, because that was the first thing that I was going to mention, but you said you were going to fix it and I didnt see how that was possible. sneaky sneaky! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ch9862 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Very nice camo - not my favorite airplane, but it looks very nice in these colors . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregax Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 After a break i started to work on this beauty. Weathering first, some postshading, but it's far from over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jrallman Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 lovely subtle finish there, i like it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WymanV Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Y'know, I've been watching this build with great interest and it just occurred to me-you might just have a seat for one of these things that'll get my stalled build back underway! Mine is still MIA. Do you still have the styrene seat, and are you interested in parting with it? Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Walker Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Nice wear on the bottom. It looks just right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregax Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 I applied wash yesterday, it' looks ok, but i still need to do oil fading, because the paint is still too uniform. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregax Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 A couple of layer of wash more. I also did "oil fading" on the entire fuselage and wings, and it looks good to me. There are some details here and there to be weathered, but i guess i am almost done. I will drybrush some areas afterwards, especially the section around cockpit and walkways. I also fixed that decal and i improve it a bit. I painted the streaks onto the decal, as the original photo shows that the aircraft wasn't just outlined, but it was filled with streaks of white paint. I hope you like it.

ac4313 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Really impressive, can't wait to see it finished! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregax Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 After a small break from modeling i am back to finish off this bird. After the weathering i applied two coats of satin warnish to seal everything . I still might do some touch-ups with weathering. I also sprayed exhaust stains with a thin mix of black-brown, followed by a slight grey overspray. I spent quite a bit of time making the gun. And i will also add a couple of objects to the base. I might do a diorama for the first time. At the moment i am working on figures. Hope you like it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gregax Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 Finally it looks like an airplane now. I had some problems with undercarriage but nothing special. I still have some minor details to finish, like guns, cannons and atnena, as well as some minor staining. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Chladek Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Beautiful looking aircraft man. I really like the colors and markings on this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregax Posted September 6, 2007 Author Share Posted September 6, 2007 I can almost say "It's done!". I will work on the base for a while, then get back to check it out once more to add a finishing touch or two. Hope you like it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
