AdriaN (MLT) Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) This is an old kit, produced in 1986!! I will finish this in French Navy markings. Argentinian markings are too common. Cockpit is bare and empty! decided to do without photo-etch. I didn't even find replacements for this kit!. Quick scratch build for the TV screen. Followed images to paint the dials. This will be a CLOSED canopy. Quite a bit of filler was needed. Pictures i will use for reference while painting. As you can see its GRAY, NOT BLUE-GRAY. After the bottom was painted white. i masked up ready for the gray. Quite a tricky scheme. perfectly straight lines! White parts covered. Post painting and post shading. For the gray i used Gunship gray. Too dark?? Edited October 13, 2017 by AdriaN (MLT) 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdriaN (MLT) Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) Apparently you must PAY to use photobucket since June 2017! this is new. how can i hide this thread??? Edited September 17, 2017 by AdriaN (MLT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) There are other photo services out there i use Imgur. Some use villiagephotos. I think thats correct ? There are a couple more. Don't hide the thread just see about updating with another photo service , and repost the photos that way ? There are a few threads in the FAQ & help and support sections.

Val Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 She's looking great (there is a plugin for Firefox and Chrome that will allow you to see the pictures, for the time being at least!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5054nz Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I have the plugin Val mentioned and it looks gorgeous, Adrian! I love your paint work. The finish is perfect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I'll take everyones word on this i cant use these plug-ins. I only have a cellular for internet/computer use. I cant download these correcting programs. So going on what i've read i say 👍Up it sounds like your Super Entendard is a decent looking job so far.

AdriaN (MLT) Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) After painting the model was painted with Klear, given a light sanding, painted with Klear again then decals were put on. Wash was done with artists water colors mixed with water and some dish liquid. Edited October 13, 2017 by AdriaN (MLT) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudge Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 The 'gunship grey' colour you have used is actually not too bad. How do you clean up your weathering wash. Just water and a cotton bud? Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you clean up your weathering wash. Just water and a cotton bud? Nice work. After applying the decals.. the gunship gray fit in & looked great! The wash is watercolor, so i did not use water. With the introduction of water it will all come off! I used tissue and in some areas a cotton bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdriaN (MLT) Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 One VOR aerial got chipped after pieces of broken glass from a smashed window pane fell onto the model. Also scratching it! I cut out a replica of the aerial out of plasticard. this was done by tracing the OTHER unchipped aerial, then tracing the missing part from the chipped aerial. Glued on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vultures1 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 That looks great and I would say the Gunship Grey (Gray) is spot on. Good repair job on that antenna too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
