@Bob: I use a lacquer based paint made locally as You can tell by the Bottles , this particular batch was mislabeled as enamel, also I run the tape a couple times over glass to remove some of the adhesive power.



@Yalım: You made My day!!! Cheers

Bob,

What type of file is your picture (.jpeg or.gif are recommended) and what size it is? 3072kb is the max. I usually go for the largest side being about 500 pixels.

@ Gonzalo thanks for the information on those two products, I tried something that was out of my comfort zone. So I will return to an oil base wash and pin line next time.

@ Yalım: nice job on the Mig 15.


@ Michael: I am going to reduce the photo in paint and make sure it say jpeg or gif.

AAHH! SUCCESS! I am posted finally.

It's a good thing that this campaign closing tomorrow and I have the day off,..

Here is my entry and I decided to do one of those first jet fighters that is actually still soldiering on in 2015 (well it seems so) a north Korean Mig-15.



Eduard, easy built, however need some weight and some putty, but all no big deal.
After primer a black coat before the dull aluminium.



Only a few Decals and voila



First start of the base to represent one of those North Korean airforce bases as you find pictures on the net



More to follow tomorrow

Heh I am suprised I managed to finish in time. My problem is there are far more campaigns that I really want to participate in than I have time available.
