wisco8 Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Just out curiosity, what color did you use for a primer? Floquil primer, then sanded with 4000-6000 Micro Mesh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wisco8 Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 That's one Flanker that anybody would be proud to have on their shelf...if they can find the space for it, that is! Excellent work! :) Thank you White Wolf. I here you on the space issue, only enough room for a truck model I built for my brother. I think if I just keep shipping them out I should not have a problem of space. Ha ha ha!! :o) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dsahling Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Was the floquil primer white or grey? Dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

adrianosouza Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Wisco: First of all congratulations. Your Flanker looks beautiful, very well put together I have a question for you since i'm relatively new to modelling and have this same bird waiting in my stash: How did you mask the camouflage ? Did you cut the masking tape while it was already applied to the model ? Did you draw the patterns free hand ? thanks a lot Adriano Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Adriano, here are those pics for you to examine, I mainly used tamiya tape, and (rc trim tape) it is very flexable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Try it you will like it. :o) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
