Skyhunter66 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Ok this and my Uboat are the final builds of 2014 - a good year for my modelling I am pleased to say! I have had this kit for ages and was put off doing it as I haven't as yet mastered NMF! I then came across some decals for Vietnam era Starfighters and bolstered by the success of my SEA camo Super Sabre I decided to go for it. I then decided I would try doing the camo 'free hand'. This actually went well and I now feel confident doing more this way - which of course is quicker and doesn't involve reams of Tamiya tape! I used Mr Color paints, Eduard paint mask etc Anyway let me have your comments etc Chris 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somtec Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Two cracking looking aircraft, like the starfighter markings. What about a couple of pics of the super sabre. Vietnam aircraft are looking really interesting to me at the moment. Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzaob Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 An interesting and not so commonly seen Starfighter, very nice finish. Looks great beside the Hun. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booty003 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Another lovely SEA scheme, really like your weathering. You need to scratch build a little revetment for them both..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Great couple of models there, got to love the Vietnam warbirds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyhunter66 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Great work. Did you use enamel Mr. Colours? Thanks - no I used the Mr Color acrylics which I love as they are so easy to work with. Not tried their enamels as yet - are they any good?

Skyhunter66 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Wow that Hun is awesome! Weathering is something else, need me one of these in my stash. Thanks for sharing Thanks - it's the Trumpeter Hun and was a real pleasure to build. Starting my F100d tonight! Chris Another lovely SEA scheme, really like your weathering. You need to scratch build a little revetment for them both..... It's a good idea actually - only I've no idea how to do one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
