The NMF looks great from where I’m sitting. What paint did you use to get such a good hand brushed NM finish? Not to many cow pies stepped in here.
Looks pretty good from where I’m sitting. I’ve never been very successful at painting any kind of silver no matter what I do so I think you’ve done good.[:)]
Looks good if you ask me.
looks great for a hand-brush job, i never had such luck with hand-brushing large area. cant wait to see the completed bird !
glen you have accomplished a lot with this one. the nm looks great. dont see the brush strokes. i would say you are more than ready to proceed on this one.

Thanks Guys, I painted it the first time withModel Masters chrome silver and had brush strokes . it looked good , then i wet sanded with 400 grit wet and dry .used compressed air to remove xtra water. Used Model Master chrome silver , andmodel master master #1799 airbrush thinner at a 4 to 1 ratio and used a Golden Taklon Angular 1/4 " haired brush. went from front to back on the fush. leaveing the surface wet with out going back over it. The flaps I went inboard to outboard useing the same stroke. I came out better then I thought. Thanks Sharkskin .
