I wouldn't because it will take a load of orange to cover the black

Just finished this one today. Not a bad kit considering it's 40 year age!! All that was required was a quick rescribe. Not much filler either which was a pleasant surprise! Paint used was Hataka in the main with Alclad Kleer Kote Flat to finish. Hope you like it! https://i.ibb.co/7kxZdh3/49479578-10...

Academy SU-27Flanker 1/48 Just finished this one. Ignored schemes in box because it had to be, for me, the digital camo from the jet we've all been watching on the display circuit this year. Masking was all done by hand using Tamiya tape and decals from spares box. Hope you like. Painted using MRP m...

Me too. Should be recovered from Texas and Florida by then lol

Just finished this one. My wife bought me the Revell Monogram kit while on holiday in USA. The kit was the really old Monogram mould with raised panel lines and sketchy detail but the decals were brand new and very nice indeed so I thought best to raid the stash for a Hasegawa F-15C and use the deca...

Lovely job!

check your pm's guys

Looking for decals for the black tailed Jaguar GR1a with the "Saint" logo of 16 squadron in 1/48 scale. Long shot i know.. Anyone have them and are willing to part with them?

Looking forward to seeing these progress bud... Good luck with the Revell kit. Built that a few times now and she's a bit of a chore!!

Number 3 for 2017 is this fantastic kit from Hasegawa. Goes together with almost no filler required anywhere. Metallics are various shades of Vallejo Metal Color and the other colours are mainly Tamiya. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a237/Takamota/models/2017/20170112_152649_zpshzw9y22f.jpg http:...

Finished this one just before Christmas. Kit is Hasegawa and the scheme decals came from the Afterburner Decals Alaskan Aggressor sheet. Paints used were Tamiya for the black and white and Xtracrylix for the grey. Flory Models wash was applied before sealing it all with Alclad Klear Kote Matt. http:...

original Revell boxing with raf decals had Austrian decals on the sheet also.. May have some in my spares box?

Just finished this one today. First completion for 2017. Paint was Vallejo Metal Colour over gloss black. Decals are from the kit and, although very old, performed very well. Panel line wash was Flory Models dark dirt. Hope you like. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a237/Takamota/models/2017/Airfix...

Very nice. Great job on weathering. subtle and not overdone.

Nice set. Good catch up collection bud

Nice kit and lovely scheme. Looking forward to your progress buddy

If you are using acrylics then Maskol is not the best product as it contains ammonia which disolves most acryllics. I'm guessing you dont use an airbrush? What i did before the days of airbrushing was to get a decent paintbrush and crop the bristles down near the ferrule. dip in paint then wipe most...

Probably my last completion of 2015. Built straight from the box and painted with Tamiya acrylics. The finish is Alclad Satin klear. Decalling was a bit of a marathon with so many decals even though it's only 1/72. Required the use of softener though and for this i used the Micro Scale offerings whi...
