jgrease Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Nice work - I'm going to be starting on my GWH MiG-29 in a week or so, and your build has me looking forward to it! John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BJ Blazkowicz Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 Many thanks for comments guys. It's good to be back. This morning I had some more fun masking and painting...I used Tamiya NATO brown XF-68 mixed with some black, and then with white for fading. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BJ Blazkowicz Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 Thank you all for comments. I'm currently on holiday, but I'll be back at bench on Saturday. New updates should follow shortly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BJ Blazkowicz Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 Hi guys Some pictures showing (slow) progress. I painted areas where Czech Air Force markings used to be. I used Tamiya's Light blue XF-23 with drop of flat Blue XF-8, and olive green XF-58 mixed with NATO black XF-69. Also, I painted anti-glare strip using NATO black. When it comes to number of camo colors, it is my personal best so far :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BOMI21 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Stunning work! I love the way this model starts to look like, but i would recommend overpainting the light green paint with something more green - look at the picture: Cannot wait to see this build finished! Are you going to use the AA missiles provided in the kit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpagueur Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 perfect camo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BJ Blazkowicz Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thanks guys! @BOMI21 Yes, I have to agree with you, light green should be a tad darker...I do have this weird feeling that any attempts on re-painting would end up in disaster, so it will have to stay that way. As for the missiles - yes I will probably use them, but I have not decided on configuration yet. All I know is that polish birds can be armed with only two types at a time. Now back to the build: I used salt technique to try to re-create excessive fading I've seen on some pictures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
