Youngtiger1 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Wow, love the fading effect on the markings :woot.gif:/> So, just a light coat of Light Gray did the trick? Interesting...I'll have to remember that. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HOKUM52 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 thanks youngtiger! Thinking back i would say it was more white with just a dab of grey. the red was so vibrante that when i sprayed the 47 decal it turned pinky, convieniently the look i was after! the stars got the same treatment however most of the body decals sprayed just with the thinned camo colour.

HOKUM52 Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) After a long time away at uni me and my brother have returned and with some new stuff to finish the model off. Got to be one of the best bits! Nice to see it after nearly one and a half years, still gleaming! There was something missing from the rangefinders screen so Some iridecsent material used giving it a realistic finish(it sucks in the post above). I discovered that trick after reading through other modelers threads. Thanks! The frame around the rangefinder screen was painted a pinky brown colour as was the edges of the canopy hence the use of that colour. more on that in another post.
