NickR Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi Arkady72 As I said earlier it is a jaw dropping model. Can I please ask how you achieve these effects? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady72 Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi Arkady72... Can I please ask how you achieve these effects? Thanks in advance For this purpose I used oil paints 502 Abteilung series, usually black and brown colors. Just a little squeeze on a piece of paper. Then I dip extra thin brush ( Tamiya high finish for example ) in the thinner ( MiG thinner or white spirit ) and with end of wet brush I touch squeezed paint. With this mixture on the brush I doing stains. If something goes wrong you can always erase it with thinner and try again until you are satisfied. Thank you very much for all comments, I did not expect such interest about this model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiG Mongoose Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) Fantastic finish and a very cool choice of markings! Edited January 5, 2012 by MiG Mongoose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) Ditto what Mish said, how did I miss this one?! A fabulous model, Artur and a real piece of art. So, now that you've stolen it from the Ethiopian Air Force Museum, you can give it back now! But seriously that is amazing and if Vitor says so, who am I to argue?
