planehazza Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) Interesting to see how the real jet painters work. Just goes to show why the marbling technique is so popular. I wonder how much tamiya 2mm and blue tack they go through per jet! https://theaviationgeekclub.com/heres-nellis-afb-corrosion-shop-repaints-aggressors-f-16-fighting-falcons/ Things of note: they paint darkest first, working towards lighter shades. Panel lines on a recently painted jet are very subtle, almost like a model that has no wash applied. I need to watch out of that on my upcoming build. I can see me needing a different wash for each paint shade. Edited August 24, 2018 by planehazza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
