Phartycr0c Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Max, just caught up with your build again. The prop blur experiment is really interesting. I cant wait to see how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozart Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 So a couple of light coats of Ocean Grey and now I'm trying the lazy man's way of masking! I found a good profile of the camouflage, enlarged it to 1/32nd scale then cut out the appropriate bits which are held in place by blu-tac and masking tape. This may or not not work, we'll see: Max Shaka HI, MikeC and geedubelyer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennismcc Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Great Masks Max, I usually struggle with plain paper, a pencil, a new #11 blade then go for the Blu Tac, yours look to be an altogether better (and faster) idea.

mozart Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Thanks chaps! I've done a first spray of DG this afternoon, fairly satisfied with it, just a little inconsistent with the sharpness of the green-to-grey edges despite my efforts to spray at a fixed angle. I'll have a review and re-assess tomorrow to decide whether it's acceptable or not. Max geedubelyer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozart Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Will subsequent weathering layers disguise any incongruency Max?Yes Guy, I'm sure that it will though I'm not 100% sure exactly which weathering method to use on this one. I usually just do some Flory Dark Dirt, perhaps a little post shading but I saw a build where Dark Dirt had been used and it was stuck in all the rivet holes and looked awful! Max Looking forward o the photos and I know it will be right on the money Keep 'em comiong Peter Photos tomorrow I hope Peter! Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 Wing camouflage, not too bad but a little re-touch in one or two places methinks: Max dmthamade, Shaka HI and MikeC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
