Chris Hannover - Germany Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Wow, that was fast! Thanks everyone for the kind words!! Nico, which greyish alu do you mean? The bird is painted in grey, it meight be looking like alu at some corners, but that is, i think, the semi glss varnish. It actually should be grey Thanks much agian mates, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still your choice of color works for me! Cheers, Nico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Hannover - Germany Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thanks Erwin & Bob! Yours will turn up nicely too Bob!! I´m very sure. Keep us updated. Nico, funny you mentioned it. Over at my other forum, someone said the same. Here is how i painted the bird. The body should be painted with Model Master 2077 Light Grey as per instructions. I didn´t had access to Model Master colors, so i mixed up the new Revell acrylics 79 greyish blue (60%) and 05 white (40%). As that was a little dark, i oversprayed the complete model with Gunze RLM 76 very thin, just to lighten up the paintwork. That´s all The shiny effect comes from FUTURE which is oversprayed by a semi gloss varnish. Weathering was done using the Tamiya Weathering Powders. They are really great!
