Thanks Guy one day I will get to the way of you Tanker's on weathering. Thanks Gary still have that idea about a base buzzing in the head. It was a better save than was expected Scott thanks! Thanks Rob I keep trying to push that weathering envelope I have another one of these in the stash probably will be NMF.

That came out Real Nice Gary!I have been thinking of doing some platforms for planes that are weathered you already shove them into that environment it does lend itself in that direction. -

I always forget oils use them on WWI when I do those not often enough for an attempt at wood grain it's hit and miss.I like pastels that's why this go round once the pastels were laid I hit with MM Flat Clear low psi and from a distance so as not to saturate the layer build it up. Thanks Gary then had a SNAFU tonight got some Nato black on the side in the OD/grey area not much just going to weather the spot over again many layers save the paint. The bombs are on,windscreen glued in/gunsight,fuel tank and the landing lights.I should have her done buy next Friday. -

The stencils are decals on this one Guy this was my first attempt at mask. I will remember that for the future as a guide I had a hell of a time with the fuselage getting what I wanted and still not that good but hey it's the learning curve.I want to get more confident on the weathering side myself like you guys are in armor I smothered the girl in wash and played it back with the powders were I felt it was to strong it worked.I have another 1/32 started years ago in a box the Revell Me-110 Nachtfighter to which it seems I have about 50% pit done may be the next to hit the desk. PS: You see the stars/bars upper wing were I forgot to cover with future I went aughhh FFFF...........then I went oh well might still work. -

She might come out a good looking "Girl" after all?The canopy is not glued down and neither is the tank.The 250lb bombs are drying and need to be weathered .The whole model got covered with Tamiya brown wash with a 1/2" brush sit for thirty minutes and started the wipe.I then came back over that with Tamiya light dust on the upper surfaces and sand on the bottom.The flat clear went on very low pressure and light from a distance so as not to soak the pastels then you can lay it.The prop was painted silver way back and Nato Black very thin on top use a knife to chip.The wheels is the most I have ever gone after a set and think it will pass AK mud paint mixed with the Tamiya pastels from earlier thinking the mud was a waste here but needed to play with it.She's going to look the work horse when done! -
