corsaircorp Posted May 4, 2019 Author Share Posted May 4, 2019 Hello Dears, Just an aside post ( Even if I used to do it more than once !!) For the one who suffer, that's not entirely funny but… Have a look !! If you need parts for your car…. Don't buy it !! thieve it !! They broke the rear door and take the driver's door in just 3 minutes and 47 seconds !! Since they did it right in front of watching cameras !! It's a mad world now !! Even the weather get mad !! 4th of May aaaaaand snow !! 😰 Last year it was around the 20th of april !!! Who take a bet for snow in July ?? Sincerely. CC Incidentally, I received a 1/48 Phantom FGR 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giemme Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Gloss white, every modellers' favourite paint .... Here's my worth of advice on it: I normally airbrush a thin coat of off-white first (a mix of Tamiya Sky Grey and Flat White in my case), then the pure white (in this case, I'd have gone off-white/flat white/gloss white). It helps getting a better coverage without applying too much paint. HTH Ciao 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Newsome Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Gloss white, that's exactly the problem I'm having at the moment. My solution is to spray it on top of the palest grey I can find in the paint box. Unfortunately there's been a bit of paint build up before I reached that conclusion.

Every time I come across a kit that has as an option an NMF finish, I always go for the camouflaged paint scheme!!! NMF can be sorted with the right paint, but is a real PITA in terms of properly preparing the model surface (NMF paint tends to show just every small crack, scratch or even idea of seam, you get the point ) Whereas , to my knowledge, there is no gloss white paint that will do the job by itself ....

corsaircorp Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 Hello Dears ! And let's have a look at the 3rd masked cumcumber of the evening !!

Wépion strawberries with Custard !! Of course I drinked a Waterloo strong dark with it !! Thinked of General Grouchy in 1815 !!!
