quang Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Super neat build and paint job, Mike! Shows off the pure, clean lines of the Mustang to great effect. That shade of red is intriguing but I do admit that it looks rather good on your model. Looking forward to the next step. cheers, Quang Cheetah11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeMaben Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 So I wanted to try something new (I think I've mentioned it before). I painted a white decal sheet with MRP RAF roundel blue. Then I ran that thru my Silhouette to cut some decals rather that applying masks or printing decals. The text turned out alright but for this particular project I needed fifty some diamonds. ( I wasn't thinking ahead on this one ) Since the diamonds aren't connected, I had to apply them one at a time. I thot I could get away with it but needless to say it was a nightmare trying to line them up the way they should be so I rinsed them and the name completely off and decided to go ahead and just print everything. (I have to keep reminding myself that this supposed to be a quick fun project ) Like I said , the text looked OK but I decided it was too heavy looking so I took it all off. I think the method works fine but the 50 seperate diamonds was just too much. So I've got the decals printed and they''re in the process of going on now. Shouldn't be too much longer before she's up and on her feet Shawn M, LSP_Kevin, Uncarina and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Really like that scheme Mike, those diamonds sound like a real pain though Regards.Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncarina Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Holy cow Mike! I’m just getting caught up with your build, and I’m glad someone is finally tackling “Jersey Jerk” in this scale, one of my favorite schemes. You are doing a splendid job!
