BevanBrooks Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Hi Chris you've done a fantastic job on the 262, it really looks like you've put you're heart and soul into the paint and weathering and it's come up awesome. Have you got a build thread, I'd love to see some pics of the cockpit wheel wells etc. Again great job cheers Bevan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One-Oh-Four Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Great model of the JaBo!! I personally might have tried to tone down the RLM76 squiggles a bit, but that's just my personal taste. And taste is just like opinions is just like.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpinestar Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Cheers Erik. I did tone down the stripes quite a lot. They were quite luminous when first sprayed! They aren't that bright in the flesh, I think the camera highlighted them a bit too well..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
