MDuv Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Hi my friend, your build is becoming a piece of art. I really love the chipping at the wing root and ammo bays. The oversprayed bands are very convincing as well. Keep up the terrific work. Cheers. Mathieu Antonio Argudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) Wow, that's just amazing work Antonio. How did you replicate the scratched paint on the wings? Very realistic. Edited August 29, 2021 by John1 Antonio Argudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very realistic. Thanks John, I use for that effect, just small cut sponges with small amounts of aluminium paint, also a metallic pencil from the prismacolor brand, that's it cheers mate!

IMPECCABLE build so far and Flawlessly painted etc. Good weathering too. Thanks Maru for the kind words, yes i agree, i enjoy building a model with some kind of history behind, cheers added some wires and a base coat of aluminium, some washes are coming next, cheers Anthony in NZ, John1, Fanes and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Greg, glad you like her some update, now she has flaps and serial number stencil, the red seems so saturated in te pics but it is not in the flesh cheers Edited September 6, 2021 by Antonio Argudo John1, Landrotten Highlander, Kaeone57 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonio Argudo Posted September 11, 2021 Author Share Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) more work done, some different lights, had to use a wood stick to widen the windscreen otherwise a noticeable gap would show, it worked and now ready to paint, also filled the mirrors inserts which are not in the right position represented by Trumpeter, the sliding rear canopy will be a nightmare to mask, not my favourite task in modelling cheers Edited September 11, 2021 by Antonio Argudo John1, duke_, Elger and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Excellent work as usual, Antonio! I have never fitted the canopy after main painting. The windscreen joint is perfecto-mundo! Antonio Argudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Looking good, very nice work on the weathering. On a side note, always wondered why so many early D's had the canopy unpainted? Antonio Argudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
