just small progress with this one

Didn`t have much time in past weeks for builds and to be honest I have somehow lost motivation for this build (there is new build project in my head already)

somy plan is to finish build stage asap and to have a fun with paint job a little bit

 

I have installed cockpit and glue together wings and fuselage

fit is quite nice so far, overall this kit is easy to put together and most of the time I have spent with adding PE detials in cockpit

some pictures

My first attempt to paint late war luftwaffe camo with mottles

 

everything painted with Mr.Paint colors

I have mixed RLM 76 with white to get less blueish shade and sprayed mottles with RLM 74 (toned down with light grey) but mottles at the end results in something really far from reality visible on photos of Red 12)

(I apologize for low quality photo)

So in my second attempt I have oversprayed whole fuselage again with mixture of RLM 76 and white and used previous layers of paint for some shading

first layer of mottles applied

and because it looked still too light I have applied another layer of RLM 74 to darken mottles a little bit

this is the result, still not the best one but I will leave it this way (don`t have enough skills and motivation to do it better these days  :) )

thanks all you guys for kind words  :)

i have managed to finish camo painting. Shading is quite heavy on photos but it will be softened down with filters and fading
