The model is a few shades darker than shown in the pics. The flash washed out the color. The base coat is MM OD with just a touch of brown. I really need a better photo setup.
 
I had the same issue when I posted pics of my FAA Hellcat. The OD looked completely different in the pictures than in the flesh so I understand completely.

A fine build sir. I'd love to see more of your work and to see you particiapte in a Start to Finish or Group Build thread.
 
A group build would be nice. I'm finishing one on another site now. I'll have to take a look at what's available here.

I'm trying some new (to me) weathering techniques. I'll let ya'll know how it comes out.

the best way to show is natural light.. I built this Hasegawa 1/32 P-51D 30 years ago and sent it to Harley Copic to use for the cover art on my book about the 355th FG

drgondog: You're right about natural light... it's 7 degrees and there's 5 feet of snow on the ground... I think I'll pass thank you very much
 
Should I reply with a meow or a sucking sound?

I like that.Will keep the work coming JB I was beginning to think you might be one of those one post wonders there.I am sure all be glad to see you paticipate in the forum.Cheers
 
I like it here, think I'll stick around. I would like to do a group build... when I figure out how to do that.
 
Neither.

I wonder how much snow he gets in Texas....

Hey we had some snow days - must have gotten a couple of inches a couple of weeks ago and it got all the way down to 24-26 degrees... lol.

And no, Jbrady neither meow or sucking sound reproduction necessary - all in good fun. Its probably going to get to mid 60's today but I see some clouds somewhere to the nw..

Talk back at me in Mid August when we feel like Gila monsters in the desert..
