mpk Posted June 9, 2017 Author Share Posted June 9, 2017 Thanks Tex! I possibly should place the F4 in here as I have an abundance of Hasegawa 109 parts. Kind of everywhere! Bugger it. I'll do it. Put myself under a deadline. These two threads are from my Modelling while insane thread. So there is no dedicated thread for them. It's not like my diary is full.

mpk Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) Interesting modelling day, looking through all my stuff and finding parts. I am wondering if I should change the propellor colour. I have the Gunze propellor colour on the Tony's spinner and blades. Does anyone know if that colour should be on the Shoki? Gotta love the way the Airscale decals make the cockpit pop.

Gazzas Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Still, a great photo with some weathering tips: Where the paintwear is heaviest at the seams and canopy. Where the engine oil has dripped down the wheel well covers. Good stuff for the would be Raiden builder. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 also note the "soft" green edge at the bottom Gazzas and mpk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I like the rain streaking too. I've started to do it in a lessor fashion on aircraft. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee White Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 That's too weathered, unrealistic. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Gadbois Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 You're right! Must be a "Spanish" Raiden! More seriously, note the completely stripped section each side of the Hinomaru. I have seen this before in a Raiden photo and I actually though for a while it was a white stripe. I'll look this up but I wonder what kept paint from adhering to this particular panel. More on the thread subject, your Shoki looks fantastic! Regards, Alain mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
