artoor_k Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) Hello! Generally I'm more into sf models but F-22 is one of my favourite planes in real.When I bought it ,it was the only one in 1:48.I modified it with the help of this article:http://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/builds/it/build_it_0850.shtml Basically ,model is just out of the box (exept the modification). I wanted to make a used plane.I'm not so happy with result because acryl wash left ugly stains :| Raptor looks very dirty... There is also a mistake with decal.The upper star is on the wrong wing :) But...this is Raptor,I have to finish it... Edited March 16, 2010 by artoor_k Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zark Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Good looking model. I like the colours of the camo, especialy the "light gray". I can't understand from the pictures, but is there something "metallic" in the paint?. What paints did you use? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
artoor_k Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Thank you There is no metallic The colors are from Humbrol.H64 is overall.Light grey surfaces is H127. Dark grey is H164 mixed with H145.Then model was covered with SIDOLUX (polish future).SIDOLUX was sprayed from the distance so it begun to dry "in flight" :) The effect is on the photos.

Murph Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Very nicely done, if you should do another one, the F-22 cockpit is actually black, not gray. Regards, Murph Quote Link to post Share on other sites
artoor_k Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 Very nicely done, if you should do another one, the F-22 cockpit is actually black, not gray. Thank you :) I know about cockpit but I began this project about two years ago and I was painting it with colors given by Italeri :lol: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
