foxmulder_ms Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) I am posting this here but very open to critics. I have tried to achieve the paint effect below so didn't bother too much about the actual colors of the raptor. From that aspect it can be considered as a whatif, I guess.

SR10user Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I like it! What did you use for the paint? I have two of these in the stash, but am reluctant to start it because of that tricky paint. The colors Hasagawa recommends for mixing aren't readily available here in Jax. Sincerely, Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paolo Maglio Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 you nailed it, I like it a lot! Maybe you can to add some flat paint on the nose cone only. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bill Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Looks great. Very nice. How did you like the kit as far as fit and stuff? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fly-n-hi Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Nice work! Turned out great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxmulder_ms Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 Thanks guys... @SR10user, I used model master stainless steel for the light color and anthracite gray for the darker one. Edges are light ghost gray. @ Paolo Maglio, I completely agree, those areas should have stay matte but I sprayed whole kit with future... I should have kept the masks on.. :(/> @ Bill, Fit is almost perfect for the entire kit. Only area with some problems is the intakes. I forgot to add this photo: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jfmajor60 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Very Nice I have this one in the stash, but everytime I crack open the box I talk myself out of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is this a real pic or is it Photoshopped? I had NO idea they F-22 had such a sheen to it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
