Rabspat Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Those last pics showed it much better. Just a hint use a darker shade on the nose cone, it will give it contrast. Just an idea your model , but it's looking fab Mark making me jealous, gonna have to buy another now. Then say 3 months you can buy it ROFL..

Bandwagon 106 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Nice work Mark. About the radome-any grey will do. The shades of grey vary enormously. The coating on the radome absorbs dirt, dust, air pollution very easily. A new one will be a light grey, overtime this will fade or darken, depending on where the ship is stationed. In the DACO book, there is a great picture of 4 Aviano Vipers waiting at EOR. Every one has a different nose colour, going from dark ghost grey, through neutral and dark gull grey to nearly gunship grey! Think you may have just KUTA'd my Tiger Meet Viper here. Again, nice work mate. Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
