Yes, the mottle looks good -- do you just point & shoot or do you use a template of some sort ?
I just cannot seem to get that kind of control.

Hi,

The mottle is done free hand. I don't use a template of mask. It's down to good paint, The correct Air Pressure and an airbrush with a suitably fine nozzle.

If you have those in your favour then the balance is down to the painter.

Cheers

Really enjoyable build and a great kit.

In fact all of these Hasegawa kits I've built for this GB have been great..

Thanks glad you like it.

It's been a great GB and while it's not over yet I don't think I can get a 4th build in before the closing date so I'll bow out now and say thanks to everyone for your comments and feedback on my build and that's for running a great GB.

Cheers
