I'm a real fan of Mr. Jean-Luc's modelling style
That's a really great model.
Only a question: How did you do this strange chipping in the tail
Cheers Nick

Beautiful work, what materials were used for the base? looks like the pre fab they used to use for a runway?

Hi all,
Sorry for the late rely...
For the paint chippings, that's what I wrote in the feature:
"Final touch was to do some micro paint chipping with a triple 0 paint brush. These were done in lighter shades of each camouflage colors (light grey, dark grey and green). The effect on the model isn't very visible from a certain distance but when you a close it is noticeable. "
The base are ready to use display bases available from Mark58

Salut Jean-Luc,
it was more random that I found the article of this wonderful model. I made this morning a short visit in Heavy Plastic and found the Link by Edu`s T-33 work.
Your paintjob is worthy to be called masterpeace! The Weathering is great. I like particularly the little colour fadings at the panellines.
Lot of details with enourmous attention to the real machines.
Beau boulot et chapeau

Hi Dirk,
Thanks for the kind words... I think Edouard is doing the real masterpiece though!
This reminds me I have to check what he is doing!
