Blast from the Past, HAWK model plated U2
morris replied to morris's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Hi, thx for comment(s) - The seams were all a pain. As you can't fill and sand; (or I couldn't) the best I could do was mitigate them with Vallejo putty wiped into the seam and covered with a Molotow chrome pen....I used a Brillo or a scouring pad from the wife's pantry to lightly brush the chrome.... -
Oh wow, !! Awesome!

Hi, - sorry, wasn't meaning to be vague - it was Alclad II Chrome lacquer for plastic - sprayed with an Iwata double action airbrush - it was sprayed onto Tamiya TS-14 gloss black applied straight from the rattle can. I prepped the unpainted plastic with triple grit sanding sticks till I had a high sheen (and still missed some blemishes over and over....) The Attempt at a new YP-38 I posted earlier is shown below - no white wash was used on this as it was intended to be straight off of the shop floor....same paint combo was used....

Hi, thx - yes - very thinned acrylic white -I mottled it with brush and used it about twice as heavy on the seams (scientifically speaking I coated the seams twice - the Hasegawa kit has raised panel lines) - anyway, it kinda looks like the start of oxidation...

Hi, thx for commenting - Minor sanding of some flash on the sides and smooth the aft section that butts up to the forward landing gear bay - the ladder entry point doesn't align well with the hatch opening on the fuselage, it's about 3mm too far forward - I used filler to close the gap there and it turned out okay....it was a nice addition in my opinion...

Hi, thanks! it's a highly polished gloss black undercoat, Alclad and a white acrylic wash(very thin mix)

Thx all, for looking in and commenting.

Thanks for your comments and the warm welcome - the finish is actually Aclad - I highly polished the plastic prior to applying the gloss black finish followed by Alclad chrome - hard part is actually buffing the plastic to a high sheen - it's a bit single dimensional but okay.... Morris

This is my first posting on this site. There are some great builds and articles here. I thought I would show my Trumpeter 1/32 scale P-38L back dated to a YP-38 (except for the boom intakes - my limited attempts at that surgery didn't work out. Thanks for looking...
