Thanks.

Plane is finish.
Now i must determine if give a matt clear coat or left it satin, as seem in many original pics.
Meanwhile i'm working on figures for display.

Bravo Stephano. Beautiful work. Tell us more about the Tamiya Pastels in the background.

Nicely done Kruaxi

Thanks.
Tamiya's pastels... nothing special to say: apply with a little brush, EVER on a surface painted with a coat of Future, then spreaders (not sure about this, in english...) with a brush as women use for make up... Sorry, i don't know the name...

Something like these...

Give pastels' powder everywhere you want, cleaning the excesses with a wet paper serviette. After a while, you can paint over with another coat of clear matt/satin/gloss without the risk to loose them.

Gave a final coat of matt clear to F-100D; i believe to finish all tomorrow.

Kruaxi, the plastic models beautician...

That turned out great. Love all the shading and mottling effects.

That's great advice Kruxi. A tutorial with pictures would be good.

Haha that is brilliant Kruaxi, Bravo!

I can hear the guy on radio, "We'll need more than gaffer tape this time...." and the guy at the rear, "There goes beer time..."

Wonderful

Cheers

A most inspiring build Kruaxi. It reminds me of all those space craft in the battle scenes from Star Wars. Beautiful job!
