Hi all, I'm currently building the Kitty Hawk 1/48 RF-101C and approaching the painting stage. You can read about it HERE My jntention is to represent an a/c operating in Vietnam circa 1967 just after the introduction of the so-called SEA camouflage. In many photographs of the period, the colours appeared worn and faded, especially the tan. Is there any brand of hobby paint which incidentally replicates the faded version of the Vietnam colours? Also, which brand are you using for SEA camouflage and why? Thank you for your help. Cheers, Quang

AMMO The Weathering Magazine - Faded - Ammo by Mig Jimenez
Julien posted a topic in Tools & Paint Reviews
The Weathering Magazine - Faded Ammo by Mig Jimenez We have now seen a few weathering magazines from Ammo and it is good to see they are keeping up the same high quality. There are 70 pages of glossy high quality paper in an A4 format, all in colour. As the title would suggest this edition concentrates on paint fading as seen on anything from aircraft, through AFVs to space craft. This title features tractors, tanks, submarines, aircraft, railroad rolling stock, cars and space craft; with techniques show to achieve the faded look. Different products are show , though as the title suggests Ammo products feature. One article shown does follow on from a previous magazine weathering article, and while it does show the fading readers of this title alone will not get the full benefit. I hope this is not a sigh of more articles being split over more than one title. Conclusion This looks to be a very useful publication, although in magazine format the print quality is more like a book. Overall a high quality publication. Recommended. Review sample courtesy of
