Cheers Matt, the masking took me a good couple of evenings to get right and I wasn't sure if the white was white enough as I was roughly guessing where the stripes were gonna be and then preshaded around them for the red, but the white pops just nice with that red laid down now even though I toned the white down with some light grey. If it was pure white I'm sure it would have just looked wrong.\ said:Nice work (and great masking) on those stripes! I'm a Mr Hobby convert myself, used them for the first time on my recent build and will definitely do so again!
Definitely give them a go Graham, the mr hobby aqueous is water based and I have been thinning it with mr hobby levelling thinner (which I decantered in to a dropper bottle, it also work well with famous and the main bottle will last forever). I have but haven't tried their lacquer based "mr Color" yet but that's supposed to be good when also thinned with the same thinner.\ said:Love the work you have put into this build Phil. Very interested in your thoughts on the paints as I am looking at clearing my old stock and starting anew. I do love Tamiya paints but they just don't make it easy with the colours, the Mr Hobby have the colours and appear much like Tamiya so could well be the route to go down.
Nope been so busy mate, I have done more though. The canopy is done all I need to do is get the step up, pilot tube and little bits on them I'm done. Hopefully should have some completed posts this weekend\ said:Is this finished yet?
