Thanks fellas, few days to dry mask it and onto the other colours....

It appears you airbrush everything..... You must love to clean that airbrush... Looks good, tho...

Meant to ask earlier..... do the wings fold ?

Do like to airbrush a fair bit....but sometimes the brush does the job too.....and no the wings don't fold....on the model!

If I had a place to keep my airbrush set up, as I have to pack it in a box, the 1/6hp compressor is in a closet, I would use it on everything!!!!

Question Wayne.... your cockpit painting, the "black", are you using a greyed out black, then a little buffing on the high spots, corners and bezzels of the instruments? It has that just a little aged and used look.

In this instance Bill, Black then drybrushed with Tamiya Sky Grey this tones/dulls the black down and highlights just right without being too bright, then I add a little silver on certain edges to highlight further as required...

will mask the yellow tomorrow and coat it overall with the lower surface colour...

Thanks for that. It's so subtle, I only took notice of something going on in this build.
