Enzo the Magnificent Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 On to the painting stage. The F-16B was sprayed with Xtracrylix XA1116 FS34102 Vietnam Green Then the camouflage was masked off with my usual technique of Blutak worms, filled in with Copydex The darker green was sprayed in - Lifecolor UA514 FS24092 RAAF Foliage Green - followed by another round of masking and the final colour - Lifecolor UA030 FS36081 Dark Grey. The nose radome was sprayed with Tamiya XF-69 NATO Black and the rear fuselage with AK Xtreme Metal 479 aluminium. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enzo the Magnificent Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 This is the Have Glass jet with the contrast parts sprayed in Xtracrylix XA1133 FS16270 Neutral Grey. The Arctic Bandit jet was a little more problematic. Firstly, the light grey was sprayed with Lifecolor UA021 FS36622 Light Grey. Masked as above and then sprayed with Lifecolor UA033 FS36231 Dark Gull Grey. I can't show you the finished camouflage yet. Having masked the darker grey and spayed Tamiya XF-69, NATO Black, a lot of the grey lifted when I removed the masking and I'm still dealing with touchups. I think this was because I sprayed a layer of Klear over the light grey to protect it. Hopefully more tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Well, I finally got the Arctic Bandit paintwork sorted. I even managed to put some of the stickers on... The others are in a similar situation. All on track to finish by the end of the GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
