czaralko Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Looks amazing! I love the weathering, one question, is the yellow color of the nose and wingtips suppose to match the color of the yellow 7 number? I built this same kit and the yellow color was off the color of the decals, in yours looks much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I don't know if these "yellows" have to be matched to each other. I didn't think about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRK Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Outstanding, one of the things that jumped out at me was the winter wash and weathering on the spinner in the last two pictures. Really like how you’ve separated the two sections on the spinner and can I ask how you achieved the very fine lines? I can’t tell if they’re a left over from some sanding or from the way the white has been removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used this approach for weathering (for all parts and surfaces): basic summer camouflage (simplified), then a layer of acrylic Tamiya X-22 Clear, then enamel Revell white, and after drying - the abrasions were made with a cotton swab moistened with White-Spirit. Here is also a few pics of process. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
