This kit is so easy to build :D :D
 
Very nice work so far, love the way you brought out the details in the cockpit.

May be a silly question but is the technique to paint the engine cylinder to paint it all black first, then dry brush silver over the fins, or paint it all silver, dry brush black and then wipe of the fins to show the silver? I could see doing it either way, just wondering which would be easiest and produce better results?

I paint all Silve (Gunze H-8 ), after that I did a wash with Tamiya Flat Black (XF-1), the details are painted with a fine brush and Humbrol Black (33).

The gray are from Gunze (H-325)

Best regards and thaks to all !

Nice to see that my job is good :D
