Erik Leijdens Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Hello guys, here is my F-84G Thunderjet in Dutch colours. Except for the decals(from Dutch Decal), it was a completely OOB build. Sprayed with 4 shades of AK Extreme metal. And with it's successor; Erik 57 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK extreme metal is fantastic stuff, it dries so fast that I masked other panels for different shades directly after spraying the first shade! It is really easy and forgiving stuff. Thanks for all the nice comments guys!! Edited May 16, 2019 by Erik Leijdens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattheCat Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 The different shades of metal are really making the model stand out. One of the nicest NMF I ever saw. A neat and great build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
