Fantastic finish and detailing for any scale.

 

I especially like the tonal variation across the grey – what techniques did you use for that?

David

Hey Dave, I spray different tones of grey and also white (both very diluted) with low pressure on different panels to create variation.

Great builds! What are the kill markings each of them carry?

Exactly what I was going to ask. These are both beautiful looking jets you have here Fishbone, simply beautiful.

 

Hi guys, oh well that's just for fun, I always love planes full of kill markings :D

That's a superb Super Bug - well done!  The Tomcat is great too!!

 

What did you think of the Wolfpack flap set?

It's nice, but becareful the flaps might bend a little bit because of temperature factor.

Hi Fishbone,


Thanks for the advice. I wasn't sure if it was pre-shading or other. I'm still new to airbrushing, so thanks for the tip.


Regards,

David
