Ta Polux, it is an old box Revell kit, not sure of size, possibly 1/48ish. Glad you like it, just something easy for me to do.

Went back to this and have added a filter/pigment wash in places also added a pitted chrome look to some of the panels, you can also see the engines better, I added some clear red.

I didn't think you could improve this mate ! I guess I'm wrong , I've looked at the first set of photos and compared them not a big difference but the little touches have improved it

Nice job mate

 

[Guest]

Yes Alan is right subtly different but so much better. The master at it again.

that is Fantastic Si, nice paintwork and great weathering ,

like how you have picked up the high lite,with the differences shadings,and the red helps to bring

bits out to the eye, lov it,

so what is this pitted chrome, ? sounds interesting ,as i mostly only use oily street,

 

[Guest]

Great stuff Si! That looks very realistic with excellent shades to add depth.

Hi Moni, I have a tin of chrome paint and what I do is do a black oil paint wash, leave for half and hour then add the chrome paint, it sorts of leaches with the black slightly and gives a more pitted, worn look. The panels are too small really to show up. Glad you like it.
