Guest Peterpools Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Mal Awesome work on the IP and front office. All the decals and placards are from Barracuda and Eduard (PE) . Once everything is closed up, a lot of the detailing we've been doing will be virtually unseen. BTW, nice cammo work on your thumbnail! Looking real good Keep 'em coming Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daywalker Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Oh, yes- brilliant stuff as always! I like how you use subdued, worn shades of colors instead of bright ones for things like the yellow stripe around the primary flight instruments on the IP. Very effective, I must remember to do that myself. Looks like you are using your thumbnail for a paint palette. Mal_Belford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 Oh, yes- brilliant stuff as always!Looks like you are using your thumbnail for a paint palette. Thx Frank. Yes i do use my thumb nail as a palette very effective when painting details, small paint blobs on the nail, different brushes close and handy, and you hold the part at the same time, i usually use latex tight fit curgery gloves when i airbrush, but im out of them , my cleaning woman have taken them all hahaha so the box were empty Daywalker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal_Belford Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 Thx al for the kind words. Allright harnes time, I scratched my head severaltimes on this one....the Tamiya photoetch harnes were wery stiff, i did not have that natural cloth look if mounted, yes i could buy replacement, but im into that this build is out of the box, and use only whats in the box, and or scratch the things i dont like Well, this i the result. i took the resin belt, held in the atachment point, used a thooth pick and cotton stick, bended it in to "right" shape so that it looks natural and not stiff, one by one, the i painted the harness, and weathered it. it fit perfect, new experiance in photo etch bending lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
