Office looks great David ! I just built this kit recently and do'nt recall any major issues with it, in fact the fit was some of the best I've seen. Looking forward to the next update!

Great work so far David, very neat painting in the office & wheel wells.


I've found that Vallejo dries much darker than it looks on initial application.
 
I have this in my stash too, did you put after market harnesses in as well as the decals? Looking good, though I see what you mean about the Vallejo colours - not too dark but with the tamiya and humbrols ones, the contrast between the grey/green is more pronounced but that might come out more with the clear/matt coats.

HI Neil,


I just used the kit decal for the harness. I thought about getting an aftermarket one but bottled out. I'm trying not to make things too challenging for my fledgling building skills.


Thanks for the comment.

Hi All,


Here are a few pictures of the progress on the Mustang.


The Techmod decals were a nightmare!


Breaking up in the water & when I put SolveSet on them. I've had to touch them up to make them good.


I have adding a little weathering and chipping though I think I may have over done the chipping.


I have some resin exhausts to paint and install then to finalise I will put a matt or satin coat on.


Help! Any chance of an opinion please.


Have I over done the chipping?


Matt or satin finish?


The exhausts - What is the best way to do them? Would they be rusty?


Thanks for looking.


D.
