bettymoo Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hello Gents, I though I would share my recently finished build. I did this as a way of relieving my ASM syndrome. It took me just two days and is completely out of the box. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonl Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Very impressive for a 2 day build. I'd struggle with that if I took 48 hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bettymoo Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hi Ragtag, It was really quite simple. I brush painted Vallejo steel. I then sprayed on two coats of hair spray. I then sprayed on the green after which I immediately started chipping with a wet stubble brush. Gloss coat, decals, matt coat followed by additional chipping on the decals with a sponge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeW Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Nicely done. I enjoy these old battered up fighters - and a nice looking display stand to boot. Cheers, Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
