basically completed, I still need to build the base for the diorama I am planing.
The decals were really difficult to work with, they needed allot of microsol!

All enamel paint.

The kit itself is very nice, the detail is very good OOB as is the fit. Only a little filler on the bottom fuse needed.

[Guest]

Awesome plane Theuns, as always. How do you do those camo paint job? Free hand?

 

[Alan 45]

Great job theuns nice detail on the camo

 

[Guest]

Free hand yes.

I have not figured out how to mask something so small as the motling, the splinter camo was masked though.

Really nice Theuns, not overly weathered, just a clean, realistic build.

I don't think these jets ever had time to get weatherd even ,being in service for such a short while.
