Hey All :Hiay

I think these colors are going to work. Once the fade and shadow top coats are on it will all
come together even more.


Textured the nose with Mr. Surfacer 500.

I went back in there and shot some fading using "Lifecolor" OD. That makes three different brands of Olive Drab, all different.



Pick your pleasure

[MrT]

Make for a nice shading effect!

 

[reconron]

Who says Olive Drab is boring?!
I like it very much Tony!



Greetings,Ron.

Moving on around to the aft end, a brief update.

Crew seats painted and installed, a few bits placed and cleaning up the parts for the loading platform.



I'm going to sit back and watch war movies all day tomorrow and remember my brothers in arms.
