AH-1W Super Cobra 1/35

[Guest]

I have been eyeing this kit for some time. How is the general fit sofar?

Hi Theuns,


The fit is great no major surgery or fillimg required so far. The cockpit detail is average though, but using aftermarket should enhance the detail significantly.

Latest WIP update from the bench:


- Main color Light Ghost Grey and Greyish Blue painted.


- Gloss coated.


- Main decal tested and looks fine with microset.


Next will be flat coat (once all decals are done) and weathering.


Any comments and suggestions are most welcomed.


Cheers

Hello,


Another weekend and another update from the bench

• Decals are completely done
  
• Flat coat applied
  
• Weathering applied (post shade and Tamiya weathering sets)
  

Question is, is the weathering looks good???

Weathering looks subtle and effective to me Leo. Stains in all the right places.
