Nope, I paint with a fine brush. Thanks by the way. A better macro is not nececary because my eyes aren't:} It is not that detailed. And I don't know why the underside turned out better. Anyways I'll try to finish it soon. Thanks again.

Finaly finished with a hell load of silvering in the decals and many more mistakes. But I won't touch it any further. Here it is:



Mostly OOB exept the gun barels and a little bir detail on the pilot.

Nice finish with good painting. I am on my way, so watch your six! Hopefully I will be posting the rest of the progress and the finished model on friday or saturday.

Hi Yalým!

Congratulation on your entry! One more to add to the list! Thanks!




I'm looking forward to it!

Watch my six???? You see it in your dreams miss....Catch me if you can rookie!!! (Too much testesterone eh?)
Thanks Jean-Luc. I am relieved I finally could menage to finish something somehow. I really started to lose my self confidence.... I am working on the duel with Nezih now. I hope I menage to finish it too. And my He 162 against Emroglan is almost done but he is not able to finish his I guess...

Here comes the finished Tomcat:













This was my first attempt at post shading using pastel chalks and I have overdone it. I will control it better in my next trial. Although the pictures do not show clearly, there are many problems about the painting, too. Very tiny detail errors exist. I did not want to apply the decals for the names of the pilots on the canopy, because I will be scratchbuilding the canopy. I did not attach the missiles, as the Tomcat is in Miramar and the real picture shows none.

Thanks for watching us. Thanks you Jean-Luc for running such a wonderful campaign. This marks the end of our duel. Best regards.

Wow!! I am aplausing you by standing up. You did a superb job in my point of view...Looks really good. Don't worry about the weathering. Jets are dirty birds and Navy jets are even worse. Looks perfectly ok to me.

Thanks, Yalim. It was great to join this campaign with you and finish it together.

Cagin

Hi Çaðýn!

I think the same way as Yalým. The weathering looks just fine! Fantastic job!

I can't wait to add it to the Duel Table! Thanks for on more superb entry!

Jean-Luc

Thanks Jean-Luc, you showed us the way
