Most probably my canopy will be close with intake cover and RBF tag, want to keep it simple, no trouble or fancy....

Decal for this project were gracefully donate by Artoor_K (JAS-39 Polish Griffon project),

thks Artoor, I won't forget to pay it forward my friend.... :bow:

 

Now need to put the Turbo on that project, did cut corner a bit by not putting in the intake ducking,

will have to make some intake plug... and thinking of putting some GT's burner can......

 

Why not ?,  Even a what-if can get class  :coolio:

 

Oh boy there are so many project I'd love to jump in with Phantom and Helo's....(new to me...)

stuff I received from GT, Speed Hunter etc..... tuff to concentrate

 

Thanks for watching,

Dan.

Hey guys, I'm back...... :party0023:  :yahoo:  :yahoo:  :yahoo:

 

Too many things happened at the job so I had to put my favorite hobby (beside cigar and Porto) on hold for a moment.....

 

So let's put the turbo on that crazy project so I can ''Get to DA CHOPPA'' too....

And from there, while I was doing a What-If with a Revell kit (a not too expensive experimental project)   :whistle:

I decide to give a shut at Doog's Black Basing technic, the subject is still hot and, why not!, so here I am.....

Weird to have that big bird all black.

 

Thanks Lars for the suggestion but I want to keep it simple and gonna stick with the Splinter so I can move on to the next GB....

it also gonna look nice next to my other Splinter Adversary TwoBobs Eagle..

 

See you soon.... :piliot:

Dan.

Oh boy, and I tought everything would have been done in a day.................... :mental: :doh:

 

For starting, I found that my black basing was a kind too dark, so I decided to shoot another coat but Nato black XF-69 this time and since I was going to use that color in my camo anyway, why not...

By doing so, I think the transition between shade of green will end up a bite more smootly.... I hope and will see soon.

 

My first step was to mask what section I wanted to keep black,

Then started my pattern and shoot my pale green XF-5, one spot a the time.

It sure take a lot of tape and eat a lot of towels but hey, don't have much choices with a model that big....

My first green is almost done and it almost took me a full day.... and not over...wow.

Now need to mask the bottom and put some Nato black again to get a clean hard edge and finish my pale green XF-5.

Should finish with that color tomorrow, want to let my black dry overnight so my tape wont damage the paint...

 

Sure it's a long process, but that's the easiest one I found.

 

see you,

Dan.
