oortiz10 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hey modelguy2, I'm working on the same kit and waiting on that same decal sheet. I'm planning on doing the green VMFT-20 markings. I'm looking forward to seeing your progress on this one. Good luck! I'll be watching. Cheers, -O Quote Link to post Share on other sites

modelguy2 Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 Not much to see in the cockpit. Here it's assembled sanded and a coat of Future applied. Not looking for too glossy a finish as it's anodized aluminum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Collin Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Future coat over your sanded smooth primer coat? Your GSB go on next? Cheers Collin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Collin Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Looks like that layer of Future gives you a smooth base to start with. I’ve seen this method used by only a few when doing NMF. Cheers Collin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
