Hubert Boillot Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Great work Eric ! Looking at the pics, I felt the stance of your P-80 looked a bit odd, until I read your comment about correcting the height of the LG...it should solve the question.

geedubelyer Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Lovely work Eric. The salt weathering on the bomb turned out really well. Most convincing. You're getting a great finish on the metal too. Choose a nice sunny day for some outdoor shots and she'll look just like the full sized bird.

Guest Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Hello Eric. Man, thats nice. You have touched on something not very many modelers don't quite go the distance when it comes to weathering munitions. You did a great job of it. The whole aircraft is top shelf !.......Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericg Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 OK, last one before this one hits the display cabinet via the RFI section. I have been experimenting with artists oils to blend the dust/mud of the earth in the corner of the base and the rusty look of the PSP. The PSP was painted Alclad Steel, and the earth work was a brown shade of acrylic. The model is SO close to being finished. I took a break from it and got back into my Meteor, just so that I could attack the very final stage with a fresh set of eyes and hopefully not miss anything! Now all of the undercarriage doors and dropped speed brakes are in place, it looks alot close to the ground than in the last post that I put up a couple of days ago. blackbetty and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Superb, I noticed the JATO mounts on the Portuguese RT-33 I saw a few years ago, wondered what they were, and now I know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
