Rich F Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share Posted March 9, 2009 Think this ones about done now, no real drama's getting her finished just took me a while to get round to adding the Flightpath RBF tags, i really recommend these although they are a bugger to paint in this scale Not going to put in with the rest of the finished Tornados just yet, feverishly beavering away to try and display it with this lot... Thats if I can get them built and painted before the deadline. I must say a big thats to Spike for getting me the extra gas bags i need.

Rich F Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Thanks for the kinds words guys I 'm gonna call this one finally finished at last. The Verlinden Airfield Revetment was a plesure to paint as I've never really done this kind of thing before i'm quite chuffed with the result. It was painted with Tamiya, Gunze and Vallejo Acrylics then weathered with Tamiya smoke, oils and Promodellers washes and finally used Verlinden grasses for the erm..grass and a couple of their Airfield signs for the doors. The figures (P.P. Aeroparts), GPU, Towbar (Flightpath)and Ladders (Verlinden Tornado update set)received various Humbrol colours. On to the Piccies... Just glad to get this one off the workbench at last. Cheers Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
