Anthony in NZ Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Oooh that's really nice!! Love the finish and especially the spinner weathering. How did you do that?? Masterful Cheers Anthony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Cross Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) I prefer dirtier birdies, but the build is spectacular. Nice work. The weathering on the spinner I believe should be matched by nicks and bald spots on the props. Edited January 24, 2019 by Bill Cross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizly Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 Anthony, I simply sprayed the spinner Xtracolor Sky Type S then Tamiya NATO Black and chipped some of the black off with a number 11 XActo blade. Bill, the leading edge of the prop has paint removed on the outer leading edges. It's just not evident in the pictures. I might add (some) 'chipping' on the wing leading edges. I just haven't decided yet. Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
