thanks fellas.
These days it has been impossible to paint with temperatures of 38º. The paint dried up before I reached the model, and the shed is like a sauna and sweats like a bad thing.
I have had to paint the belly of the plane and I have just repainted it today the temperatures have dropped to 29º and I will try to do as much as possible before the temperatures rise again.
When I finish the bass I put the photos

let's go with it !!!
After giving the azure on the bottom again with dirty white, mix 15 parts of white with 1 part of green (use the forest green of the usaf), I make the lights on the bottom for fading, after this I gave a thin layer of azure blue to cover but not cover.
drying this with green shadow, light siena and dark siena of talens in watercolor I give a generous layer throughout the plane both below and above, let it dry 3 hours and remove it by rubbing the surface with a stick of the ears, moistened in water , giving it the sense of air to give it the dirty look.
After this I give the first paneling with the ak products, the paneling boat for desert camouflage is the special one. finished drying I give the sealing lacquer, this time I gave klear.
