No weathering, as a kid I never new how to do that.

 

Streight OOB for the G/B.

Rattle Can 101, just like when I was a kid.

HI It sure looks nice in the gloss but I don't thank the real bird would be that glossy unless your wanting to show a museum display bird. Have you considered a semigloss finish. There was one at our last model meeting in the same markings that was in a flat finish with some paint chips and weathered to look rather dirty and it really looked like a battle weary war bird.

I with you gloss is not a war bird.

 

I'm going Flat

Steve ,

I think you should split the difference go with semi gloss.

I agree with the others, should be semi-gloss at best, or as I call it, "Scale Gloss."
