Joel_W Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Paolo, What a great build of Eduard's new offering. Your cockpit as usual is just weathered to perfection. It's certainly one of your strong points. Camo paint scheme and decaling is near on perfect. I do have one question for you. I looked very carefully at your camo paint scheme, and the demarcation lines are soft edged, yet I can't see a single spot of over spray any where. Do you use Blu-tac or some sort of raised off the surface mask? Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skinny_Mike Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Awesome build! These seat belts look like fabric instead of photo etch. Who makes these? Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joel_W Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Paolo, I've looked at all your bottom pictures at least twice. The weathering is spectacular. Really, it's much more complex then the topside. Various areas are treated differently, creating a realistic effect of the highest level. My building philosophy has always been: It's the overall finish that is the most important factor for display models, not super detailing, especially when posting pictures online . You OOB build is rock solid. The execution of paint, decals, and weathering is what makes your build so special. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chukw Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Brilliant finishes are your hallmark, Paolo- cheers! I think the kit looks like a beauty- and am glad to see that the arms for the slats are not molded to the wings. I always break those off! Much better to have them on the slats themselves.
