dora Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Hello everyone. Last completed model (s). It was very interesting to make a spotted camouflage. I hope you will enjoy. 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is described in great detail, a lot of photos. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christer A Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I'm very grategul and relieved that Gul Fredrik (Yellow F) is one of the marking options. It looks like a great kit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithjs Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Really looking forward to this and will no doubt do at least 2 of them. One thing I was curious about tho' (and please don't take this as a criticism of your model) but I was under the impression that the way camouflage was applied consisted of a base coat of Zinc Chromate primer followed by olive green sprayed on top in irregular patterns and then sealed with matt varnish mixed with 5% olive green again?? The way yours is finished it gives the effect of being the other way around? Anyway, as I said just curious. Wish I could get hold of the MMP book too. I've got the other one.

SAT69 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Great model. I'm most impressed by the paint work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dora Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 Yes you are right. I first stained the model with olive, then painted yellow spots. It seemed to me that it was more logical to paint this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
