Good job, like the exhaust effect, what did you use ?

very nice ' love the weathering

HShes a beaut

thanks all

Cheers , cant seen to find anyone with stock

I agree but due to limited visibility into the cockpit they would be a bit redundant . I spent a fair bit of time giving he insides a weathering only to find that once the Two halves go together they were completely obscured

Can anyone recommend any aftermarket bits and bobs , looking to gussy it up a bit in the cockpit area

Cheers for all the comments and at the risk of contradicting myself the humbrol white did go on well. For some reason I have always had a problem airbrushing white but with a bit of trial and error thinning the mix I got it down OK. My next project will be the Revell hunter , can anyone recommend any aftermarket cockpit kits

Just purchased this today , can anyone recommend any aftermarket bits

I do confess to using Tamiya thinners with the humbrol acrylics so I will try again with the humbrol thinners , but the paint either was to thin at 2:1 and to thick at 1:1 and would not go through my airbrush, had to resort to removing the needle to get it to flow. But again I cant praise the decal solution enough went onto a gloss surface without any crackling or silvering

I know about the decals , a combination of having the model upside down and the instructions the wrong way round

After a short break from posting due to moving house I decided to take on the New tool of the airfix dakota , this was also my first stab at using Humbrol Acrylics and although the colours were spot on I still prefer the tamiya. The actual kit went together well and despite the over complicated wing roots and lack of cockpit detail I decided not to go for any after markrt bits and went with it OOB. I also tried the Humbrol decal solution and am glad to say its excellent

Try liquid filler , I use it for my canopies , apply into the gap then before it dries smooth into the seam using a moist cotton bud

Calling this finished , used a mix of humbrol and Mig pigments but had a bit of trouble keeping them on Had to keep dusting the powder on then coating with varnish

Awesome work, like it a lot

very nice , loving your work

Very cool , puts mine to shame

Very nice , I've just finished the same kit and yours is way better

First time on armour but will be having another bash and will probably try using pigments

Kit is Tamiya £15.00 from Modelzone and scale is 1.35

This is my first go at armour , done a fair bit in terms of aircraft but thought I'd give a tank a go

Hi mate , what paints did you use ?

Very awesome

Mazeballs awesome work love war mac
