1⁄35DC-130A Drone Carrier
Conclusion
I used all Model Master enamel paints. The entire model was primed in white prior to applying the yellow and red portions. Learning how to apply Day-Glo red on the Firebee drones was a challenge.
The markings are taken from the kit decal sheet, although I back-dated them to markings worn by the aircraft at a time when the black "cheat line" on the fuselage was very thin and the tail had simple black block letters without the yellow sash provided in the kit decals.
I weathered the model using diluted enamel paint washes and shading done with an airbrush. I left the entire aircraft in a gloss finish, except for the walkways on top of the wings. The walkways were painted with a clear flat paint, masking off the lettering and insignia so these would stay glossy.
