It is Citadel's Grey Seer from a rattle can, and is close enough for me in this scale to the colour of F-104G's used by the EdA. On 25/06/2022 at 22:35, Davek72 said: Lovely work John. Cheers Dave. I have managed to do a bit more on it over the past couple of days. I've wrapped up the bulk of the painting since the previous update, the exception being the canopy frames. I like to do those as one of the last jobs on these tiddlers. by John L, on Flickr by John L, on Flickr Then earlier this evening I made a start on getting the decals on, finishing that small task a short while ago. by John L, on Flickr by John L, on Flickr John. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Very nice John, the Spanish markings certainly add some colour to the model don't they. Very close to the finish line now mate.👍 🇺🇦 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dansk Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 nice john. are you considering a descrete panel line wash after decaling? a sealing matt / satin coat after that could really bring it all together so nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks chaps. I don't usually weather my models and especially not in this scale Paul, mainly because my weathering skills ain't anything to write home about. But I did have a go at a panel line wash on the Spanish 104 by using this. Having duly applied some to the lines on one of the wings, I left it to dry for a little while and then used some thinners to remove any excess - only to find that it removed what I wanted to keep, and that is where this weathering sojourn ended, before I really mucked things up. I am certain that it is my technique and not the product, so methinks more practice is needed - a lot more practice. by John L, on Flickr Along with the Thunderchief, I also finished the detail painting on these two European Starfighters today, and here they are together. by John L, on Flickr by John L, on Flickr I will pop some more photos in the gallery later.
