monthebiff Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 Base camoflage colours sprayed on to the fuselage and centre wing section. Not sure but think I'm going to spray a very thin brown glaze over this to bring the colours together a littke more before adding the stippple pattern.

monthebiff Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 So the stipple effect has been applied now after playing around with airbrush pressure and paint thinning, thus was applied once I had sprayed a very thin brown glaze to bring together and mute the bright camo colours a little. Pretty happy with how that turned out, now to finish pairing the cowls etc and move on the decalling.

Karim Hi Karim and thanks for looking in. I did indeed use the Wingnuts suggested technique and it worked like a dream! I mixed 50/ 50 ratio paint to thinners and played with my airbrush settings, didn't take to long so happy days! Regards. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, next step is to seal the effect in and finish painting and decals on the fuselage. Oh and fit the tail feathers! Regards.Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Thought it may end up being a mess but all good in the end Kev. Should look pretty interesting with the rest of the scheme and markings applied.

monthebiff Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Now have the fuselage painting complete with engine cowls and underside completed and then decals on followed by adding the tail plane. Also finally finished the wings adding rib tapes etc with Aviattic faded lozenge on white decal paper followed by kit decals to finish. First efforts at adding the individual rib tapes and really happy with the results. Also the white decal paper Aviattic use is exceptional and works so well with no issue's whatsoever! Shame the WnW decals are not so easy to use and pretty thick and need some help settling in to place. Regards.

monthebiff Posted March 21, 2019 Author Share Posted March 21, 2019 So some decent progress on the Halberstadt with the fuselage completed and weathered followed by finally getting the lower wings fitted. Also have the upper wing weathered and complete and about ready to fit in to place. Really happy with how the Aviattic decals worked and look compared to the kit supplied lozenge and well worth the extra effort. As ever thank you for looking in and comments/ criticism always welcome. Regards. Andy LSP_Ray, LSP_Kevin, Fooesboy and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
