Revell 1/32 Spitfire Mk2

[Guest]

Hi Steve, I have not done any of the top colours yet, was planing to so so today but spent all day working :-(

Thanx for the tip.

Nice work Theuns, and I think an un-steady hand for pre-shading works better, you don't want it too neat.

Here is my "faded dark earth" with just enough shading and "blotchyness" to look well used.



I took Steve's advice and got Hu 168 for the green, it looks really nice.
Just waiting for better light to take pix.

Main "very faded weatherd" colours on . My own mix of faded DE and the DG is HU 163 as per Steve's info.

I am quite happy with the way the decals went on, the one bottom roundal cracked up a little when I forced it over some protrution but I can fix it.

Looks pretty good. But hey its a Spitfire.

The paint and weathering turend out OK, the insignea decals were nice but the carriefilm on the letering and stencels (even after loads of microsol) still silvered. I solved this by carefull application of tamiya thin cement to the affected areas.



I still need to put some oil stains on the bottom
