Big Kev Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Beautifully finished Greg, just lovely. I have the old Hasegawa 1/32 kit in the stash, and I hope it turns out as nicely as yours (if I ever get to it!). Kev Quote Link to post Share on other sites

latormentabritanica Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Wow! Awesome paint job! Two questions: How did you do the camo on the vertical stabilizer? How did you achieve that wavy demarcation line on the leading edge of the wing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TF51GREGWISE Posted October 7, 2007 Author Share Posted October 7, 2007 (edited) Wow! Awesome paint job! Two questions:How did you do the camo on the vertical stabilizer? How did you achieve that wavy demarcation line on the leading edge of the wing? The vertical was painted along with the bottom at the same time then the mottling was freehand the LE wings were masked with tamiya tape cut in a wavy pattern.

Liberator24 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 then the mottling was freehand..... now, you see why I have not got that many put together.... I just buy kits. I cannot figure a way to get them looking this good. -Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
