ruzlkampf Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share Posted December 28, 2009 Oh yeah, I've changed the way I'm going to do the markings. 'Blue 29' is now out, and I think this'll be 'black 1' now. More pics as things progress! Later, Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javlin1 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Russ I have actually done that a couple of times with my 109's sparying the 76 and coming back with 66 for the preshade on the panel lines works out well because you really can control the the 76 on top.Cheers Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 U the man Russ! Ur a monster wit these builds! I better kick it in the arse just to keep up.......... Although, I do find it kinda hard to keep motivated at certain stages of builds........like sanding and unfortunately the project im on now requires a ton of it, in joining many resin parts to the OEM kit parts to make a resin/injection Frankenstein. Keep the pics comin, and remember to take a breath and drink a beer/wine/favorite adult beverage of ur choice! Cheers, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruzlkampf Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 Day-thuhreee, and the night is still young. Only 3:00am (bah-hah, I LOVE vacations!), so while I'm posting my paint should be juuuust about ready for a gloss lacquer coat and decals before I stop for the night. Methinks I'll have this done by tomorrow! Heeeeeey Brian! Glad to see ya following along with the fun & games. Been waiting on another update for the Mk.XIV,....what's up with that?! Thinking of doing one of those in 1/24th around March or so with an old Airfix MK.-1 kit I got for a song & bad shuffly dance. I foresee mucho putty in my future! Yeah, that technique worked out pretty good Kevin. I don't pre-shade too often, but it wuz the way to go for this camo-scheme. My paint-jobs are about as subtle as a loose cannon, but I thought I'd give it a whirl to see what'd happen. Here's where I wuz after I got my dead-beat butt up this afternoon. Repainted the spinner while I was doing black. I read where the spinner was toned down with RLM-75 on some of these so I thought I'd try it grey. Nuh-uh. Didn't happen. This build has been constantly morphing in my attempt to get what I have envisioned,....whatever that is....a very low-viz late war 'what-if' that I woulda wanted to fly if I had my druthers to paint it any way I wanted at the time. Time for some progress pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruzlkampf Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 This was lotsa fun, and great practice with my Iwata. I'm still fiddling with the regulator so it doesn't slobber at the mouth. I did mention I'm not too subtle with my paint-jobs, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruzlkampf Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 OK, the plan was to pre-shade over my RLM-65 (that doesn't sound right. ), then go back over it with yet more RLM-65......then a light overspray with RLM-76 on the high spots and to give it a faded look. Came out better than I expected, but my photo skills suck as far as showing ya'll what it really looks like. Here's a few views to give the general idea; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruzlkampf Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 Ooooooh well, that's the general idea anyway. One last while I'm stalling waiting for for paint to dry and put decals on. Let me put the canopy/wheels/ and spinner on for a full dress rehearsal, just to see where it's going. Darn thing is tough to photograph! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruzlkampf Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 Heeeeeeyyy Blackbetty! Yep, this is good practice for some future low-viz schemes for some navy jets. I really suck at this, but it's lots of fun! OK, a few more views of my 'subtle paint-job'. Ooooooh I can't wait to meet my nemesis; Mr. Exhaust-Stain, and my other arch-rival Senior' Weathering. I like this view, it comes closest to showing what it really looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
