Here's a quick build, bit of stash busting and refresher while I wait for decals for something quite a bit bigger. AZ Models 1/72 Bf 109G-14 Wr.Nu.462919 "Weisse 7". I find the blotted out insignia and no frills scheme (no colourful ID or unit markings at all) to be quite menacing in its monotone. Erla mottling is quite hard to execute in this scale though, at least my wife likes it and calls it my "leopard print plane". Anyway, for a "quick and dirty" project I'm fairly pleased with the outcome, any tips are welcome 🙂
I would also like some colour feedback please. For some time my standard RLM 74/75/76 schemes have been done using Xtracrylix. But recently I have been questioning the amount of effort I put into getting good results brush painting them, and whether their RLM 74 looks too green. Now, without opening the usual can of worms on this, I wanted to use more generic paints and see how a standard scheme aircraft would look with more neutral greys, as these colours were often perceived especially from a distance. Final picture for comparison (both "White 7" by coincidence) is with a Tamiya G-6 finished in Xtracrylix. For this build, the main colours used are:
RLM 74 - Humbrol 32
RLM 75 - Humbrol 27
RLM 76 - Revell Aqua 76 (a pleasant coincidence)
Thank's for taking a look!
