Eye catcher roundels. Looks great so far.🤗

At last some progress.

Starting to use the very nice masks from Mal (https://www.facebook...emasks/?fref=ts) for the mall lettering.

Next will be the bigger letters and the name of this Spitfire in off white.

Some progress at last , had no time for modeling since a while.
Here an attempt to simulate the exhaust stains with oil paint.
Not happy yet, will over spray it again with light gray and start over with the oil paints.
It is still to dark.

Previous weathering over sprayed with very light gray.
Now the next attempt to simulate the smoke stains with the dirty patches like on the photograph (with oil paints, the old school) in the first post.

That looks terrific, Jan! I think the roundels might be a little too bright, though. They really stand out!

Weathering of the underside started, first sprayed a mix of brown and black, then continued the weathering with oil pants .
