K2Pete Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 HOLEY KOW!! ... what phantom ... what's the hurry? Your speed is remarkable ... your masking and painting ... is it as good as it looks, or did you just do one side? Tell me, where's the fun for you in a quick build like this? Is the Speed-build aspect where you get your enjoyment? ... Or the Paint and decalling? And one more question ... is your stash just about depleted now? Thanx ... these are a blast to watch come together! Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 Naw, its just such an easy build....When I take too much time I over do things and screw it up. I have a paint method that saves time. Just airbrush , then touch up as required. This one oddly needed very little touch up, just the tan in a couple places.. Keep a pretty low pressure so it does not fly all over. Stash, still have 90 or so to go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tobiK Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Maybe it is the perspective of the pic...but it looks like the camo Tiger has an up pointing nose!? What a snobbish bad guy! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
