You like that one James? Thanks. Still think that we might get that effect better if we sponged the blue over green instead. You get so much green working it starts to build up some texture, also think a flat surface would work better.

Thanks guys, someone remind me the next Tamiya I get, to get some aftermarket decals, these things are going on like leather straps.

You too? I thought my decal setter was bad.I tried Mr Mark,Mig softener and Micro Scale an still couldn't get the buggers to settle.

No head on shots for you to analyze the landing gear Chris.

Wonderful looking paint job!

Don't worry about the pictures, its sometimes not easy getting the pictures you want when photographing a glossy surface.

I did it again...can't remember what I did it on before but I know I did it before.

Got the flat coat on right, then I washed it down with Migs Neutral wash.
NEVER MIX MIGS WASH WITH LACQUER THINNER.



I'll be in the corner over hear contemplating my next move. This bird is toast. :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm
