Kevin H. Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I remember this aircraft as a war trophy at the national aviation museum in Ottawa, Canada back in the late 1970's. And when wingnuts wings released it I built the kit. I loved it, the kit went together so well. 109 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Good evening good sirs, I made some progress on my Junkers ... Dry fitting of subassemblies. All markings are airbrushed. Camouflage was sprayed using card board templates to achieve a ragged color seperation. Working on the wheels. Added mud and dirt made of pigments and fixer. Test of my new weathering technique: Base colors are a mix of browns from Zero Paint RAL 8017 and Tamiya XF-64. In the picture this color is the dark shade. Then a coat of hairspray was applied for 30 sec. Rinse with water. Chemical reaction leads the light shade seen below. This can be mechanically removed with wooden chisels, stiff brushes etc. Now it´s time to order a pizza :-) Edited February 3, 2019 by 109 LSP_Kevin, TorbenD, Fanes and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Hi all, a little achievement, at least for me ... :-) Proof of concept: I sprayed the complete model with a mix of thinners and hairspray adjusted to work with the lacquers used on the model. Dark areas are still wet of rinsing the model under the shower. This gives an idea of the original shades. This is the first time use on a model after a few years of empiric research – and failures! Erhh.. happy little accidents! (Love you, Bob Ross!) The dried model shows the bleached finish to advantage. Now the mechanical part of the physicochemical weathering can begin :-) Have a nice modeling evening! Bernd.

DeanKB Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Impressive stuff! Too many WNW kits are done "factory fresh" it's great to see one looking like it spent it's life in the open air, on grass runways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Posted June 8, 2019 Author Share Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) Good evening, some more weathering on my Junk, mostly done by airbrush and some pigments for the exhaust pipe. Bye!
