Looks awesome, David

How did you get the stain on the wing, and what paint did you use to paint the silver?

Cougar

G'day Warren, first of all thanks mate
ok stain from the fuel caps was done using a stubble brush, and some red and black mixed together, just dabbed and rubbed on, get the brush as if u were gonna drybrush though, minimal paint on its bristles ( same deal with exhaust stains)...
Overall coat was Humbrols Polished Aluminium, airbrushed on, then i painted various other panels on the bird different shades of silver, and metal.
cheers, hope it helps

Thanks for the tip, David

Also, does the canopy have future or anything on it (Looks very clear)

Cougar

Nah mate no Future or anything, my tip, just handle them with REAL care, make sure no other parts from the sprue scratch it, make sure i dont accidently get paint or glue on it, and just use your common sence
cheers

nice work so far . so keep on finishing it

Will do Costas
