scvrobeson Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Love it, very effective weathering. Thank you Maurice! I'm using a lot of techniques I've learned from the guys on here to help weather this one. Hopefully it all comes out well in the finishing stages.

scvrobeson Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Matt Absolutely gorgeous weathering - simple beautuful Keep 'em coming Peter Thank you so much Peter. I think this one might be my best build ever. Even a step up from the -109 and L-29 I did earlier this year. Working on tanks seems to have helped me understanding weathering better.

scvrobeson Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Stunning paint work Thank you Zak. I'm really enjoying your Avenger build as well. It's a great plane, and you're doing great on it. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Ray Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Great job! The weathering really tones the markings down and ties everything together nicely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep 'em coming Peter Thank you very much for that Peter. I try and get better with each of my builds, which I think is the goal of every model builder. Keep building, and keep improving. That's why I'm glad I got into modeling so young, I have such a long time to hopefully hone this craft and get as good as possible. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Great job! The weathering really tones the markings down and ties everything together nicely! Thanks Ray. That's why I did the oil filtering. I see the armor guys use it a lot for the same effect, and it really seems to work well. Gave the paint a few more dimensions, and gave it an overall grimy, dirty look that I want. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Now THAT is how it's done, bravo Matt- she's absolutely STUNNING. Thanks very much Frank. Been missing your builds around here, hope everything is going well in your life. This Typhoon has been a lot of fun, and these ground-pounders were usually pretty beaten up by the end of the war. Makes for a much bigger weathering canvas than I'd usually have. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor K2 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I've been making model aircraft for longer than I care to remember and I think I would have to be 150 before I reach any where near this level. Master building at it's best, keep this up and your next one might require a "Hunny I shrunk the Pilot" to test fly it. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Hi Matt, Really like what you doing with your Typhoon, not to far tfrom the finish line now. Regards Richard Thanks Rich! I'm getting very close to the end, just need to finish the weathering, and get the last little bits attached. I've had a lot of fun with this, I hope you enjoy your build. Matt Edited February 14, 2015 by scvrobeson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just try and do as well as I can, and learn from the people on here. Working on a couple of tanks recently really helped me learn some new techniques for weathering that I can apply to my aircraft builds. This one has a pilot to go with it, he's actually been watching the entire build from the top of my work desk. I might have to pop him in just to see how it looks.
