Finally got the figure in the right posture. It’s harder than I thought. Guess I’ll need another two weeks before painting starts. Time is running out!
WIP 05: Most of the inner frame is now painted, I ran out of crocodile clips to paint all the parts in one sitting. Another painting session planned for Friday, which I’ll finish off the dark grey frame parts.
A lot is goin on!! well Congrats to all the works simply without words, and after 22 days not showin because of work i finally done the Highlights process on the upper Cammo. and now the final stuff, prop, landing gear to paint and wathering all the BF..
It’s tricky to hold and paint an airplane while not touching anywhere. For jet fighters, I stick paint brushes in the exhausts. For propeller fighters, I paint like cdhobby, one side at a time.
Otaku, thanks for the comments, well is hard to paint like this but is very nice to see the final work, other thing i try not to use masking tape only hand free and stencil
Off course is hard to paint and it takes a lot of practice, to avoid overspary you must know very close the paint and use the same brand, the rules in the free hand game is Pressure, proximity and viscosity PPV.

WIP 04: Finally got started painting. The red parts are painted light blue and the dark blue parts are now a popping orange. I’ve also just started priming the grey frame pieces. Slowly but surely with this build.
Super nice – do you know how to flat spot the wheels so it looks like it’s sitting on the ground? Risky once its put together probably but adds to the realism.
1. Test fit the wheel with landing gear with no glue. To be able to adjust the position of the flat spot later, it must rotate freely. If the fit is…[Read more]
