Today's update;
The first order of business was to fix the canopy as Airframes described. This was done by applying oven cleaner with a brush on to the framework to be removed, then letting it sit for a bit. It was then carefully scraped off using a dull metal edge.
After that was done, the entire plane was highlighted with medium brown on the surface and navy blue gray underneath. Little attention was paid to being to fine here as it would be touched up before long.
this was then touched up, and exhaust and gun trails were made using black and dk gray washes. i decided to weather the tires and landing gear also as its a desert machine, this was done by first giving them a light white wash, followed by dry brushing in a dirt color.
And then it was set aside to dry, as the project is complete, all that is left now is the finished item photos which are not yet taken!
