Thadeus Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 That is one nice aircraft :) Can't wait to see it finished. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChippyWho Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Don't see too many of those around, especially in SEA colors! Will look forward to this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
john53 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Cool. Wasn't that originally the plane that tossed nukes out the rear door? Ought to look interesting in SEA cammo, especially with a deck full of gray and white aircraft.---John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RKic Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Wow, all that nice detail that you will never see once you close the fuselage. Nice scratchbuilding. I always like to see home-made additions to a model. It shows incredible talent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChippyWho Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Very fine work there, Sir. It's true the Viggy interior is not the most visible -but a few good photos will remind you what's in there! :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich in name only Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 What paint will you use for the exterior? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I always like to see home-made additions to a model. It shows incredible talent. Rkic, thanks!! I know what you mean, but I have test fitted and actually most of what I´ve done will be visible ....from a certain angle of course ajajja Very fine work there, Sir. It's true the Viggy interior is not the most visible -but a few good photos will remind you what's in there! :D/> Thanks ChippiWho!! What paint will you use for the exterior? Rich, I´ll be using the Vietnam color set from Gunze. Cheers!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich in name only Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Next question: What color are you using for the green? It wasn't a usual shade for aircraft and the only Gunze VN set I find is for vehicles. At least one A-5 had a black diagonal area at the fin tip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Rich, about the colors, here is a picture of the set that I´ll be using: In case you can´t see them the colors are: Green 303 = FS 34102 Green 309 = FS 34079 Brown 310 = FS 30219 Gray 311 = FS 36622 One thing though, the brown looks too dark to me, I always mix it with one drop of Radome Tan every 3 drops of brown. Here is an example of an old build using the same colors and proportions: I hope this helps, cheers!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I wish we could get gunze acrylics in the US. I hoard every bottle I can get my hands on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
