Thanks for all the kind words!
I made more progress the last few days. I started with the topside camo.
After some debate, I decided to start with the green. I mixed my own shade for this paint, based on some info I found on Britmodeller.
My goal was to achive a worn Buffalo. From what I read, in the Osprey volume, the R.A.F. buffalo's were under constant treath. So the groundcrews did everything to keep 'em in the air. Also the Japanese pics after the surrender show worn out Buffalo's.
But, it's tricky not to overdo such worn paintjob. So I tried not to overdo it on this model.
I hope I succeeded. You be the judge!
Here's the model with the green pain already on. The original shade is a bit darker then R.A.F. green, as it was an US. colour. (from what I read)
I tried a new technique, at least for me. Puting the camo on with rolls of blue tack. (It isn't really blue tack, but Poster Buddy, the closest equivalent I could find...)
I used the Scale Decals painting guide for this camo. It matches the sole picture I could find of the Plane flown by Gordon Williams.
Took me a few applicatians of the stuff to get it right.
To keep overspray to a minimum (and repainting afterwards) I used masking tape to cover up the green segmants of the camo.
Which worked like a charm, as everthing turned out quiet nice imho.
I used Humbrol's Dark Earth as the base colour for the brown segments, lighted with some ochre, and a tiny bit of white.
Both green and brown are three different shades build up to achieve this;
Pics are a bit oversaturated, but I'm happy with the tones of both green and brown.
Next will be a coat of future as a base for the decals. Thanks again for looking!
