Jimd0586 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) Morning! I have the 1:48 Revell F/A-18E and I am using the CAG decals and paint scheme from VF-14 that came with the kit. The Vertical Stabilizers on that scheme are black. So I painted them accordingly. I am now at the decal stage and am wondering what to do looking forward... I planned on using my black Tamiya wash on everything (navy gray scheme paint job on the bird), but then I have the black vertical stabs. Do I use the gray wash on them? I feel like: 1) gray wash doesn't actually work well (maybe I just need to stir/shake up the enamel wash better) 2) it would create issues to the eye having a black wash throughout but a gray wash on the stabs. Here is where I am at so far: https://imgur.com/j91tQNH Thoughts? Edited May 28, 2019 by Jimd0586 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I would repost this is tools 'n' tips. This is the Jet archive and you won't get much, if any, responses. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
