Same one, and when are you guys switching to the new Forum?
Soon, we're testing the software, today or tomorrow the software will be installed on our web server, it's been on the developer's staging server. John I'm going to say we're within a week, 2 weeks at the latest.
LOVE IT!!

It's the Eduard kit. Yes I did fill in the panels, I told myself after the 1st one I was not going to do that again. Well, this is number 3 and I have filled all 3, lol.
Thanks guys.

Luiz and eerains, I use model master aluminum buffing metalizer. (Now discontinued)
I make my own mask and start with the painting of the U.S. insignias and all other major paintings.
Once done, I will cover all paint and markings and prime model with a satin black primer from Guenze and dry brush the metalizer onto the paint similar to this one.
The wings get painted with tamiys LP-9 lacquer paint.
You can seal the metalizer of you want but I have found it will change the luster just enough that I do not apply it. You just have to be carful as you can get the metalizer all over.
That's how I do my NMF.

Don't recall if I asked you this but did you try to dry brush the Alclad pigments?
