dawestsides Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Very nice build! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janman Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Great looking model! I like the camo. Despite of some minor accuracy problems on the kit the finished model looks very nice indeed. I'm really looking forward for the other versions, especially the duckbills. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jbrundt Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 John, Very nice job! And despite all the hoopla, gnashing of teeth and general wailing from the rivet counters if I walked by this kit on the display table at a contest I couldn't tell beans about what was wrong with it and all I could say is "Gorgeous model!" You have talent sir! Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gregair Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Asolutely beautiful! Could you tell me which paints/colours you used. Is there a humbrol or Tamiya equivilent straight from the bottle/tin for that medium green ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tigger Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 Asolutely beautiful!Could you tell me which paints/colours you used. Is there a humbrol or Tamiya equivilent straight from the bottle/tin for that medium green ? The colours are home made mixes as I wasn't happy with the colours quoted, also some of the colours were not in the Gunze paint range but the Mr colour range which is not available here in the UK. Most of the mixes were basic colours with some hints of darker or lighter paints added and they all came from the Gunze range. I am sorry but this is a bit sketchy but I just mix the colour until I am happy with no concerns for how much of X and Y to get the colours I want. Hope this helps?
