Chilly on the Eastern Front G-6

[wackyracer]

So, here's my Trumpeter 109G-6 done as a quick build for a workshop with Jamie Haggo the other weekend. The workshop was crackin with loads of new techniques picked up and a chance to see the master in action! Winter whitewash was the theme and this was my attempt.

 

Anyway, I finished it off this week and knocked up a base to set a winter scene.

Cool!

 

Might just want to Haggo the tires a bit too though?

Cracken stuff Aaron, always a tough challenge to do a winter camo probably why I haven't yet. How did you get onto the tutorial, how many people? Would've been a blast.

 

Cheers Bevan

Looks great, Aaron!  Really looks good along the wing roots.

Cheers Bevan. Tutorial was excellent. Started at 9 and finished at 4 and still didn't manage to cover everything he wanted to do, but boy did I learn a lot. Want to redo the Ju88 now with the better techniques I picked up.

 

How's that 109 coming along?

Thanks Mike. AK washes and pigments over the top then another blending wash to embed it into the paintwork rather than make it look like its floating on top if that makes sense?

Yep, well spotted! I need to add some snow pickup on them. One of the things on the list that got missed/ran out of time before the show last Sunday. Hey ho, she got second in the competition and beaten into first with the naked Mig I did last year.

Aaron, the 109 is on the back burner for a while. Fuse is together and riveted. I built the wings up as complete units so I could rivet them more easily and that's about it. Trying to clear the shelf of doom with some 48th stuff.

 

Don't re do the 88 just build another one and see the difference!

Aaron, whats your brew for that efflux staining? Looks very effective against the stark and somewhat lurid winter scheme (beautifully done by the way mate; can you believe Jamie Haggo models like a god then goes off and flies fighter jets during the bloody week!!!!-Legend!) Cheers, Dennis
