Holy Schmolies. What a beautiful job.

Thats an excellent looking build.

What satin coat did you use?

Thanks..I'm glad y'all like it. Splash, I mix my satin to whatever sheen I like using Model Master Clear Gloss and Clear Flat.

Great Job Barry. As a former resident of Saskatchewan, I like to see the first air ambulance in the province. You nailed the yellow and green colours really well too (they're in the provincial flag).

Cheers

Thanks Andrew. You didn't ask, but the yellow is Model Master Chrome Yellow and the green is Hu 2 + Hu 195 mixed 5:2. I just mixed it to match the green in the decal.
