One-Oh-Four Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 Wow!! Great looking Flogger, Paulo! I like the camouflage colours and the weathering, I hope I can have as nice a finish on my 1/48 MLD and my 1/32 MF!
TeWika Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Paulo, Great work- very convincing Flogger! Cheers Ted
ophthoidoug Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Really nice finish on this bird! Can I ask you 2 specific questions about painting 1) What technique did you use to demark the (soft but clear) different colors on the upper surface (I'm guessing paper masks with spots of poster-tack)? 2) What technique did you use to bring out the panel lines after painting (maybe airbrushed "transparent smoke" or pastels)? Thanks Doug 1

Thanks Doug Hi! Sorry about the late reply! About the first question: It's quite simple to demark the colors. To make them "soft but clear" I always use rolls (worms) of "Blu-tack", a kind of plasticine, from the label Bostik. It's fat-free and very efective. about the second question: I used a oil wash (a mix of sienna and black oils with white spirits) and, at specific points, I apply a very thin smoke (Tamiya X-19) layer. Hope that helps. all the best, Paulo
JG26 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Excellent, very crisp finish. I'm not into Russki Cold War jets, but that's enough to make me interested in doing one. Regards, Dan M
