This is the Acc Min P-51 C that I had originally started to be the Weeks 51C I posted recently. When I realized hat one did not have the tail fillet I put this one aide for the moment. This is where it is at the moment. Just need some white theater bands on the wings and a yellow leading edge.
This is my first attempt at a free hand camo. Not as unhappy as I thought I would be, but the results are not thati had hoped for and nowhere near as good as I have seen others accomplish. The feathered edge scales to probably 4 inches wides. So it’s practice, practice, practice. There is preshading and post fading.
Still looks real good from where I’m sitting, Marc! You have the shading techniques down to a science, and your first attempt at freehand camo…very nice indeed! I’ll be watching this one with a great deal of interest. Keep us posted! [tup]
Looks like a fine paint job. Nothing to worry about there. It could be worse, like my current Mustang project. While trying to improve my natural metal finish, I had a little accident with a buffing wheel! I’ll be repainting it very soon[D)] <-duh!
Marc, that looks really good!!![tup] That freehand painting is very good for your first time, I do not think I could come close with my first attempt. Keep those pics coming!!
I don’t know Marc, it looks damn good from my viewpoint. Squiggles I’ve tried with various outcomes, but I’ve yet to be brave enough to try a freehand softedge camo yet.
