CedB Posted May 25 Author Share Posted May 25 Done: 1/144 close ups. Ugh. Not my best work but OK from a distance. Dead one shots: Forgot to paint the exhausts. Now done. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon you could probably make something suitable from some clear sprue? Micromesh is your friend. I've given the yellow noses about 100 coats of brushed Model Air but finally happy enough with them to apply some 65: The pot was drying but nothing that couldn't be thinned with flow improver. Progressing. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CedB Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 Thanks Giorgio and James. Now then. Canopy frames. Heather had put me on to those weird pens for painting thin lines: I've not been much good with these before so I tested it on some plastic: Pretty thin line on the left there. Hmmm. Does it work for me on canopies? Er, no then. I'll leave that to dry and attack it with scraper things. Transfers: …on. With the scraped canopies: Lesson from this? Don't zoom in. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Model looking good with the scraped canopies And no, I didn't zoom in, I promise .... Ciao 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
