Lupo Rosso Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I just joined this community yesterday, after lurking about for many years. I thought I'd go ahead and try posting some photos of my latest completion. I like odd aircraft, and this one certainly qualifies. The kit had pleasantly good fit, and only a few issues to address. The clear parts were reasonable clear, and distortion-free, but I still did some polishing on them. I'm glad to finally complete a model, and have another unusual subject on the shelf. 26 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangseat Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 That's quite a cockpit transparency! Nice to know that it's a reasonable kit, must be one of A model's good ones. Lovely gloss finish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vultures1 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Lovely job! That certainly counts as an eye-catching and 'unusual aircraft'. Great work on the transparencies and the gloss black finish in particular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorty84 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I had no idea Amodel makes a kit of this aircraft. As I have a soft spot for odd aircraft too I can only say May I ask how you achieved such a nice, glossy finish (colour/vanish)?

Lupo Rosso Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 Many thanks to everyone for the compliments! Markus, The paint I used was Mr. Color, thinned with their Leveling Thinner. It wasn't as smooth as I wanted (my fault completely), so I ended up doing some careful polishing with Micro Mesh pads. Finally, I gave it a light waxing, using a carnauba car wax.
