Revell 1/48 PV-1 Ventura

[IBranco]

Hi everyone! 

 

This is my attempt at Revell's 1/48 PV-1 Ventura. Lots of mistakes, but I hope to have learned a bit more. Nonetheless I had a great time building it. Here are some pictures and thanks for looking!

Looks like a well used aircraft, I cannot see any mistakes.

It looks very nice. I like in particular the faded and dusted look. Can you describe the techniques?

Great build of a real work horse

Hi, I just used some of those new Oilbrushers. Random dots of Dust, Dark Brown, Rust, Dark Blue,White and Black and I tried to blend all in. Then some pigments Airfield Dust and Dark Earth. It was my first time dealing with oils and pigments, but it was fun trying it out.
