Amazing build, love the story portrayed here!  I am also very impressed by your weathering on this one, especially the chipped paint on the wing roots following the rivet lines and the fuel stains on the fuselage from the filler cap on the nose.  Can I ask how you achieved those effects?  

 

Stunning work!

Thank you for your feedback! 

The effect on the wingroot was achieved with 3 layers of paint (aluminum color, green primer color and blue camouflage color) as a basis. Then I used a fiberglass eraser and a scalpel blade to erase the paint carefully according to original photos.

The fuel staining is different variations of the basic blue camouflage lightened with white, green and yellow and applied by airbrush in thin layers. The black stains were done with Soot color out of a Tamiya Weatherine Set and applied with a shortened old small brush. Also based on original fotos.

For further questions feel free to ask me.
