Well I'll move it to Wesendorf Field and git'er done. :drinks
Na, that's not the intent of Second Chance. That's for making up what you missed out on. I could have finished this if the stars had aligned better but that's cool.
Sky with a lot of white.
Close, not so close? :idonno
Think I will do a bit of dark blue for some post shading. Not much.

Thanks Phil, Think I'll darken up my mix slightly and do a post shade along panel lines, don't think the underside would be TOO faded but let's see what it looks like.
BTW, it's "Git'er done"..."Git her done" is much more formal for our use.

Yep, that's what I'd be aiming for aswell. 'Course my aim may be a wee bit 'off' :coolio - When you come to the green, Bob, I know the 'current thinking' points toward a really bright almost 'pea green', and (to a point) I agree, but adding a wee drop of 'olive' will calm it down a lot. Again just my two penn'arth.

Green?? Really? OK, I'll ad a drop or two of green, think I will thin this application down and apply it like a wash, just a misting. Wahtcha think?
I added that paint chip, I see what you're talking about Ian. :drinks
So what's the prevailing though on the green up topside?

It was a long day yesterday... :facepalm
The pre-shading effects are looking very good Bob!
I won't comment on the color chosen for the undersurfaces but anytime you are comparing colors or mixing shades of paint to match paint chips it should be done in natural lighting conditions, even the best indoor lighting can lead to mistakes.
For what its worth I tried using a dark blue for the pre-shading color a couple of times and it was a bust and did not give the results I was after, gray seems to work the best as a pre-shading color but that's with Luftwaffe RLM undersurface colors...maybe blue as a pre-shading color would be more effective with Russian undersurface colors. :idonno
