stevej60 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Morning folk's another Airfix oldie picked up without decals so a spurious scheme from spares.Like the Sabre a good test piece for a silver finish for an upcoming build I tried Tamiya's rattle can polished aluminium.It was only £2:99 so no complaints on that score. Thanks for looking in. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanC Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Nice one Steve. the old Airfix Thunderstreak isn't a bad kit, and looks good in Italian markings. As for experimenting with metal finishes, have you tried AK Xtreme Metal? It's now my go to paint for NMF. Ian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightningboy2000 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Very nice Steve, ditto wot RidgeRunner says! At least you've finished one which is more than I can say! Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 As expected, yet another classic kit build and one which I’ve never quite considered myself until viewing this beautiful model. Well done Steve! ... oh yes, here’s another plug for AK’s Extreme metals, you won’t be disappointed. Cheers and well modelled.. Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jean Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Hi Steve, oldie and goldie! It does scrub well under your ministrations! You are an air brush user, so a rattle can may look a bit coarse for you, but as a hairy stick wielder, I am more than happy with the finish a spray can will deliver. Bottom line, I like your finish very much! Great job! JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
