    Thanks for the comments, guys.Cheers Steve. I usually prime my models with Tamiya white fine surface primer, decanted from the rattle-can and airbrushed. The camo colors are Tamiya acrylics, thinned with Tamiya's own lacquer thinners and airbrushed, no sanding between coats. IIRC the underside blue is Xtracrylix. I used paper masks to get the semi-soft demarcation lines. A couple of coats of Future, decals applied, then airbrushed with Testors Flat.
    Thanks. Nothing special concerning products. So its down to that old thing: skill. Also, from the very fuzzy shadow, I see that you must have used a light tent which of course gives a very soft all-round light. Perhaps that helps to bring out the quality of your painting. I will experiment.

      Amazing paint job, love those tones, so more interesting than the usual schemes seen on these!
