Hajo L. Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I have to say that I'm not sure about the second, very grey green I see here... Are you sure about that particular color? HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Are you sure about that particular color? HAJO FS34079 Forrest Green. The two green tones FS34102 Dark Green and FS34079 Forrest Green within the SEA camouflage scheme often have a different appearance. Since I painted the model with FS14102 and FS14079, it is difficult to see the difference in the pictures due to the strong shine and the resulting light reflection. After applying the decals, the model is covered with matt varnish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aircommando130 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Wow! That's awesome work. We have some Harrisburg crews here converting to the MC-J. They would love seeing their old legacy EC when it's done! Cheers...Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aircommando130 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I flew in a few C-130E's still in SEA paint and the right side of the tail the brown was done to look like a birds head. It was awesome! Cheers...Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AWACS-RESIN Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 Construction is progressing. The decals have all been applied. They are a mix of my own and kit decals. The three wire antennas have also been attached. Unfortunately I messed up the propellers when I was spraying them. So now I have to strip them all and spray them again. Then all I have to do is apply the clear coat. Thank you very much for looking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aircommando130 Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 That's awesome! Hope you can slide that wing through and not break an HF antenna! Waiting to see the finished EC Hercules sitting on the parking ramp. Cheers...Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
