2p's worth. If it'savailable , try and get the NSAWC A/B version. You get the option of either a 1 or 2 seater, cool scheme and a vast amount of weapons. But, its an early A/B with NSI and a PW engine/nozzle only.

12.05.2024 06:54 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0From memory it's usually on the clear sprue in airfix kits and it's a 2 part ( one clear one plastic) on the revell
25.02.2024 16:58 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0There are several airfix kits that have the Hs2, some lancs, think there's a Halifax too. Might have one in a spares stash if needed?
25.02.2024 16:43 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0A very good stir and a drop more of thinner. I use a pipette to drop specific amounts in each pot. I've also added ball bearings to each pot. Helps break up any congealed pigment that occurs between builds.
12.02.2024 20:05 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I pre-thinned the 3 main colours as I build a lot of bundeswehr vehicles (40+) so far. Made sense to me.
12.02.2024 19:41 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Front, I used revell aquacolours over the top of rattle can mid-grey primer. All 3 camo colours are thinned, in pot, with revell airbrush thinner. Mixed thoroughly and applied with a number 2 brush. All over green then apply black then brown. Touched as required due to missing bits or handling.
12.02.2024 16:19 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0All done. 2x Patriots and tractor.
Now for the 400 decals on the F-4F Phantom.

18.01.2024 17:08 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0This is going nato 3tone european as per the box. May have to make a mask for the 4 launch tubes
18.01.2024 07:52 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Decided to strip the original paint as it dried very streaky. Repainted with a fresh pot of XF53, much nicer finish and lighter dried colour. Onto the tyres
