    Wyvern S.4

    Hi all, finished this Trumpeter Wyvern S.4 in 1/72.

    Really enjoyed the build, was my first Trumpeter kit and I'll definitely do more, still a lot to learn but I think I'm beginning to get somewhere.

    All comments and advice gratefully received. M

                  Great work on this one mate. If you still have a lot to learn then i hate to see how much more i have to learn. Fantastic looking aircraft once again. *****

                    Nice clean plane. Maybe too clean. A bit of wash here and there could have make it perfect.

                      Hi Bluriusz, yeah weathering is one thing I really have to work on, not much success with it so far always just seem to make a mess, I wanted to photograph this plane before I had a go with a wash. Should I buy one or make one? I've heard that if my paints are acrylic I should use oil wash and vice-versa but dont know which to buy.

                        Nicely done Michael, quite a complex little aeroplane by the looks of it.

                          Looks great Michael. If you are going for a wash, you might wamt to try promodeller / flory wash, (it changed its name sometime ago) it's really easy to use. Lots of people do make there own, but this stuff is simple to use.
