IDF 1/35 Huey...Paint

Yesterday I was able to get some time in the paint booth.

First was a preshade of Flat Black and then Vallejo Israeli Desert Grey. Four and a half hours later this is what I have.

I am happy with the way it looks. Getting better at this painting thing.

IDF 1/35 Huey...Decals

Well after some difficulties the decals are on.

These decals were problematic, they cracked and split over the detail. I will need to paint over the cracks.

Next up is to clean up the decal issues and then paint the blades. Not much is left.

IDF 1/35 Huey...Almost There

Well folks this is my "Almost" post.

The build is almost done. And this time I have a new toy to play with. I have a 36" cube photo/light booth. Although with this set of pics the same issues are still there.

Pics

To be honest the build looks decent. I like the colors and I like the way the paint went. I do not however like the photos as the color is washed out and the snow white backdrop looks like a light grey. I am at a loss as to what to do with this but I keep trying. I have tried exposure, lighting, and different positioning of the lights. They all seem to come out the same.

Ahh well....rant suppressed for now.
