Congrat! It’s beautiful !

It’s a nice model!

1/72 not 1/62!

Stuff I use for riggings

This is what I used. The 0.3 works great for 1/62 and 1/48 scales.

And you? What’s your technique for the riggings ? 😄

Yes I was hoping that wasn’t to much. I don’t like enamel so I will go further with acrylics washes. It really add something more to the model.

Spitfire 1/72

I’m experimenting vallejo white wash to break the colors monotony. What do you think?

Thanks! It’s the airfix dogfight doubles (A50183) kit. It contains 2 kits P-51D and Me262 😍

Me-262 - bottom

I’ve done some tests by dry brushing graphite on the bottom and on the tail. What do you think?

Captured Me262 by allies in 1945.

So next to finish is the famous Me 262 number 711…

Woow! 😍

Some small touch -ups here and there and it will be completed! Great kit from Airfix!

Antenna drama… as always.. The self made replacement part doesn’t look so bad 🥵

Thanks! I’ll try this!

I’ve never used any ak stuff. What varnish do you recommend for metalic paint? I was thinking about satin for this build.

Me neither… for the paint I use vallejo aluminium, steel for some panels, interiour green, yellow and for the red it’s the only humbrol paint I used. It worked fine on low pressure.

Very nice! This is the first p51!

A kit from Airfix! It sounds like an easy build but it’s not from my point of view…

WIP: Looks good so far. Some of those decals are quite a nightmare.
