The second color, HU140 + HU130 has been applied now and also masked. All that remains in the third and final color.
Being a wrap-around scheme, the masking and camo colors extend to the underside of the model.
The final coat has been applied. For this color I switched to Tamiya acrylics, as I like the look of Nato Black in the Tamiya range.
The exhaust petals are bare metal and I have used Alclad Stainless Steel with a light coat of Titanium Gold to simulate the heat discoloration that is normally present on these engines.
The Tamiya acrylics dry a lot quicker than the Humbrol enamels I normally use, so the masking can come off the same day. Even though you can’t see them, there are several spots that need some repairs due to overspray etc.
