pittnuma Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Hi all, Don't suppose anybody has seen some of the warbirds 1/72 tile decals for sale have you? I've got their tile codes (which are the numbers for the tiles) but I need the actual tile decals as I intend to sand off the base tiles and apply a decal set. Secondly, the exterior fuel tank is textured, in filling and sanding the texture is removed, any ideas on a way of creating the same texture or what textured spray I could use? Thanks Edited January 29, 2014 by pittnuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabio Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I had the same issue with my ET. I replicated the missing pattern with some blobs of filler but found when rubbing them down the adjacent texture was rubbed away noticeably. In the end I redid the whole ET with polyfilla stippled on with a brush and then given a light sanding to take off spikey bits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roma847 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hi Guys, I know a friend, who has used rustoleum multi-colored textured paint for the ET (1:72) texture and got this nice effect. Source: http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=232748&st=60 Another German friend had a great idea, he has sprayed the ET (1:144) with spray glue and then sprinkled with fine sand or even better with flour. Sand: Flour: Then he has removed the loose residues with a paintbrush, and then painted with an airbrush and it looks very nice.
