1/48 Hasegawa F-2A


Recommended Posts

I've posted this elsewhare but thought i may as well post it here as well

As usual I'm not entirely happy with the result but it looks good in the cabinet so it'll have to do.

Typically just before I typed this I found a web site, linked from the IPMS USA site of all places, with quite a few shots of this actual jet, and it was quite a bit more weathered than I'd thought. For those building any of these jets have a look here

Edit to my original;

I was wondering how you mixed the paints, in what proportions? It looks that you really have a good match and comming close to the real deal, it would be nice to know how to mixed the paints.

I've seen here a couple F-2's and 8Sqn F-4EJ passing by with the same camo, but every time some ons asks for the "secret" the aswer is just this paint with that one. I hope you are willing to share in what proportions you mixed your paints!?

Thanks very much in advance,

Daniƫl
