Hi guys, here is my most recent project.




























center seam on the canopy






















Painted with MODEL COLOR, thinned with FUTURE



















Salt weathering






















That's it for today, more to come....

Cheers!

Hmm never seen salt weathering being used on a modern jet before. Did you just spray a slightly lighter grey tone over that then? Looks good though!

What is the mix you use there for thinning your paint? Future I get, but whats Ajax?

[Paul]

Nice work, I too am intrigued by the Ajax which if I remember correctly is a cleaner?

[Robert]

Hi guys, thanks for the comments.

Sorry I forgot about the AJAX....
Ajax is what Windex is called on my part of the world (Portugal). But you can use any window cleaner, as long as it has some ammonia in it. Or just use plane old Future or Klear.

As for the salt weather, I sprayed some water on the model, then sprinkle some table salt on it (remember that the dark color will be wherever salt isn't!!!), let it dry and finally spray some tamiya smoke VERY thinned.

Cheers!
