Looks good and a lot of spraying to do.

Gonna need a Big spray gun for all of That!

For those that wonder about the 'out of stock' notices when ordering paints!

For those that wonder about the 'out of stock' notices when ordering paints!

It is indeed taking a LOT of paint.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

But from what I noticed, you have four spray guns, so multitask, two in each hand.

Has a helmet mounted sprayer been considered?

Has a helmet mounted sprayer been considered?

Now if you'll please demonstrate this handy technique, I might just have to use it.

 

[Gnomey]

Looks good so far!

 

[Donivanp]

I did not like the Vallejo Chromate zinc, I decided to use the Tamiya Yellow Green instead and am much happier with it.

Cockpit work

Next after the yellow green I used AK acrylic dark sea blue for the gear wells and flap wells.

I'll have to go in and due a little clean up to the second line as it should be yellow green and the area of the gear well only dark sea blue..

 

[A4K]

No expert on Hellcat interior colours, but that does look much nicer Don.

 

[Crimea_River]

Looks chromatey.
