rom1 Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hello guys! Thank you very very much for your comments. as for the faded decals, I weathered them by drybrushing some white oil paint. I also sprayed a very diluted layer of gray on them. They are brighter on the front fuselage because this part is protected with canvas cover on the actual aircraft. Concerning the metal areas, I work with Humbrol Metalcote 27003. I thin it with "white spirit" and spray with airbrush. after 10 min of drying time, I rub the paint with a tissue. This makes the metal shine to appear. Some color modulations are added by sraying red, copper, alu, black... I also added some tamyia weathering powders from set "D": burnt blue and burnt red. Thanks again for watching and leaving comments and questions ;^) Cheers Rom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IGKent Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Perfectly! I especially like your realistic weathering as seems to be like the real Flankers on duty... I'm agree.... But the main drawback is the pylons without arms A-A class (imho) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ettore Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) Hello RomI do not like too ultra-modern planes, my concept of modern aircraft stops in the 70s, so I will give an opinion on the technique and coloring: EXCELLENT! Greetings from Italy Bonjour RomJe n'aime pas trop les avions ultra-modernes, mon concept d'avions modernes s'arrête dans les années 70, donc je vais donner un avis sur la technique et la coloration: EXCELLENT!
