elmarriachi Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 Hello, I am just thinking about the color of the two big landing lights on the wings .... what is the background color behind the lamp itself? Is it silver? Who could help ....? THANK YOU! Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy vd M. Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hi Michael, if you have "The Nutter" (SmallShop; used for making individual raised rivets) and resin, you can cast your own landing lights. Then the background would be their tri-foil. http://www.thesmallshop.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmarriachi Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 We color the world ... I have decided that I will not present the airplane in a "New" or "Museum-look".... I want it used, a little bit dirty ... At first I gave it a complete painting in Aluminium (Revell Aqua), before I have made a mixutre of Aluminium and Black, which I brushed over the airplane in the direction of the flight... and at the fuselage as well up to down. After that a mixture of Aluminium and white... and the same procedure again. After that I masked several areas and gave one more darker color...

elmarriachi Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 The next step will be the basic color of Aluminium one more time to make some corrections once again. After that I will mask everything and add some salt on the partial areas before I paint these in red.... a used red ..... then glossy clear coat on everything before adding decals and more washings / ...

Silver Dollar Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) It looks pretty good at this stage. I see where you're getting the various shades. That should work out well. Keep 'em going. Edited January 14, 2014 by Silver Dollar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmarriachi Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 Made the corrections today - now the silver is finished and looking really well I think..... Now I will mask everything for the red paint. I am thinking about the correct red color now.... let's see what I will find about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmarriachi Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 After a lot of masking work I have brushed the red parts with Revell Aqua Colors.... ... and made two first layers of high glossy clear coat for a shiny surface as base for the Decals.... The next steps are the decals, then a further shiny clear coat, then one more masking for painting the black ond olive parts ....
