Collin Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) This will be a what-if marked aircraft from the 13th Bomb Squadron in Korea. Gear up, in-flight. Painted with a base of Mr. Surfacer 1500 black, followed by some panels painted with Tamiya NATO black, and then finally a slight coat of Tamiya Sea Blue to reduce the toy-like mono-black look. I think it worked. First photo is before the Sea Blue, last two photos are after the light coat.

titan8251 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 That NATO Black almost looks like faded OD green Crazy how "not black" NATO black is. Looking good dude! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Major Walt Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 That’s one of the best paint jobs I’ve ever seen! Beautifully done. I’ve never been of a fan of wheels up models, but I might have to make an exception here. i especially love the way you did the red on the nacelles. Ive got two unbuilt. This gives me inspiration!

Collin Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share Posted March 27, 2020 Man, couldn't wait for this kit to be done, and near the end took off the canopy masks and realized I had leakage and now a good portion of the clear parts look like there is condensation on the inside. After that, I just wanted to get the thing thrown together and off my bench. She's painted in in Korean War markings but not a specific aircraft. So here she is.
