ice35 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Hi Stu yes i am going for a RLM 78/79 Halfords/Humbrol spray paint colours look, i use Ford Bemuda light blue for the undersides etc as its the nearest match i can get and Humbrol sand for the top, here is one i did earlier until my kids got hold of it and this is all thats left.

smuts Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 lookin very good!.. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice35 Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 Well got the blue sprayed last night and let that dry then masked it up for the sand colour. Here she is all painted now for a gloss spray, i use Halford clear lacquer which leaves a very nice shiny surface. I dont have a airbrush and use rattle cans and lots tape to paint my models so am a little limited on what i can paint, i hope you like so far.

Arniec Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Nice paint job!!! I only saw the hole for the antenna under the left wing. I think that that wasn't on a G4 but more on the later versions. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
