slick95 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I have finally finished my 1/48 V-22 Osprey for the VTOL's of the World GB. Although it is not completely accurate with its OOB decals (they are of a real Osprey, but not the one like I have painted) and the colors...but I am pleased with them because they do look flat indoors and shiney in the light...much like the real thing. None-the-less, I am happy with my work and new techniques I have learned from this build...especially in the short amount of time I had to complete it before deadline. I found that you can in fact mix a gloss coat (or at least future) with poly scale flat to make a satin or semigloss (thanks much guys for the help in tools n' tips today!). I have left the gear doors loosly attached as well as the loading ramp. That way I can eventually attached the gear to allow it to sit on the ground and close the ramp if I ever feel so fit to do this. I will post my 2007 builds soon! Thanks all for looking and for the help! SLICK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
