Special Hobby 1/32 -Tempest Mk.VI -Egypt 1949-Finnished


Recommended Posts

Bummer, a new species Kevin, the hardwood floor monster, but gear bay doors :icon_eek:. You should fill the gaps, they must be canyon like :D
I once searched for an airborne PE part for about an hour and after giving up, I found it, while having breakfast, adhering to my sweat shirt.
Riveting looks good and I like the rockets as well.

Cheers Rob

Well I am hot/cold on this one some parts I like some I hate the r/side being a hate on the fuse maybe just not enough silver it's so temperamental.I like how the wash just kinda blended things getting somewhat better on the landing gear.I can see another one of these in the future but the dart 106 I have going is going to get more layers of silver and a longer dry time I get impatient.:hsmack:

Baby steps.;)

Looks fantastic and I have to agree, the left side looks better. I had a similar effect once, painting NMF on a JUG, but can´t remember the details.

Cheers Rob

I need to figure it out Rob maybe I need to wear gloves?I honestly think it may go to a bit more paint and a longer dry time?:hsmack:;)

Your Tempest is looking great. I like the NMF as it is. It has a suitably used and tarnished look. 

Thanks Carl she is ready for inspection
