dragan_mig31 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 honza you are insane in a positive way :D the camo is perfect.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Walker Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Honza, Looking very nice there! Your "post-shade" is the same technique as I use. It takes more time than the presently fashionable "pre-shade" with black lines everywhere, but your model is a great example of how this technique gives so much more "reality" and depth to the finish than the simple, un-realistic (IMO) black "pre-shade". cheers, M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Me, I use both techniques and I see no point in choosing the one over the other! @Honza, marvellous paint job and a great build!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spooky 01 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 WOW, simply amazing !!! And, to keep in line with the other comments: Thanx for the tutorial. :lol: There's just one thing I don't get. From what I can tell You surely have some extraordinary modelling-skills. Besides that You also take quite some time to up-grade/modify certain area's that need some attention. In doing so You clearly invest quite some time to get things right. :) What I just don't get is the fact that You haven't taken the time to "eye-ball" the bird a bit more closely... Once finished, all I will be able to see is a typical JASDF-bird in a HAF-livery. To me a real pitty to see such a beautifull build which is basicaly in-correct from the start... Hopefully You'll tell me You just regard this build as a "fun-build"... "Check Six....." Spooky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
