PhilB Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 OK Oliver, we know you have the watchmaker's skills on detail, and you say you haven't done any airbrushing for so long? Well if that's your idea of basics then I don't know where it leaves me. Your third photo of the camo job is absolutely stunning. Love the look of the detail. Hmmm, You must have an Achilles heel somewhere when it comes to modelling? Terrific as usual! Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as airbrushing skills....believe me I need more practice. Glad you like how it looks so far. I have stripped all the paint from the fuselage again and will be redoing the camo work and weathering several times before I am happy with the paint results.

JRutman Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I am not lying when I say I have no words to add any more. That paint job is every bit as good as the superlative scratchbuilding in the interior was. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 OK Oliver, maybe it is the time to introduce us to the crew of your miniature workers.

shark64 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 Gentlemen, Thanks so much for the kind words. I did however make a huge mistake with the overhead windows but I am working on fixing it. I sure appreciate all the comments you guys are writing on this post. The freehand camo was tricky at first but with practice it can be a lot of fun... I tried so many times on scrap fuselage before being happy with the final result. Thanks again for the support Oliver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
