Hey guys, heres another one fresh of the line, this was half painted hiding in a box so i thought i'd finish it and it only took an evening to finish up.
Paints as usual are lifecolour and tamiya, and the camoflage was fun to do, although i still need to work on using my iwata to get a finer atomisation. the paint (lifecolour white) is awful and keeps clogging the airbrush with semi dried blobs so that might have something to do with it!
here she is.

Thanks Bill, I went for the subtle approach this time. Only wore the prop and added a few washes and a little post shading.

James,
Very nice! Detail looks good despite the smaller scale.
Cheers,

Very nice. Love the cammo scheme and the weathering is just enough for my taste.

Very nice work on your Fw 190!
No matter what brand of paint I used white has always been the most trouble spraying fine lines with.
