TomcatFanatic123 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 That is one sweet looking front instrument panel ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liberator24 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Awesome job on the panels! I got so frustrated making the wash work, I just bought the Eduard set! Looks good but I would have rather did it your way...not as flat!! -Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ScreamingEagles Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Hi everybody! I think I have a problem.Does this part have fitting problems?? Because when I tried to make some dry fit, there was a huge gap between this part and the IFF antennas. ;) Thanks for helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GA.modelmaker Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 great looking viper so far. keep up the great work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because when I tried to make some dry fit, there was a huge gap between this part and the IFF antennas. Thanks for helps. I did have a problem with that part. Matter of fact, the canopy on mine still won't close properly, which doesn't matter to me since I posed the canopy open. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ScreamingEagles Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 Update time. I've painted the Viper.Next I'll try to make some panel fadings.Here are the pics: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark M. Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 It looks pretty good. I'm a little nervous about doing the top color on mine. Did you mask off the demarcation by the nose, or anything? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ScreamingEagles Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 Thanks! I painted the demarcation line by free-hand.But it took 30mins.to make such a line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ScreamingEagles Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hi mates! Since I didn't like my first panel shadings,I decided to change it.By this way;I've painted the black areas between the nozzle petals.(I masked all of them one by one :) ) Here you go: :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
