The Eggs wing coming along well. Sprayed in Tamiya XF2 and hand painted "exhausts".

Kit decals.....well I'm not sure what's going on there, there a tad too big lol. So a couple nights masking I airbrushed all the markings on. Still got R2 to paint and then on to weathering,

Great :th:
Nice job on the painting :cheers2:

Whenever possible I always paint stripes, is much nicer I think.

So i added some chipping to the painted parts giving a worn look, then gave it all a gloss coat using aqua gloss, and using an oil wash gave it an all over panel wash.

Finally i airbrushed some "blaster" scorch marks and oil streaks.

The R2 unit was hard painted and oil washed and the eggs wing mounted to a stand :banana:

Final pics will be released in a few days
