This is what she should look like in the end!
2 December 13, 2016
The parts on one of the sprues. Nice silvery/aluminum shade. That will change though 😉
3 December 13, 2016
The wheels and exhaust parts ready for painting Revell 91 Steel.
4 December 13, 2016
The painted parts. Learned something by mistake. If I airbrush these parts until the paint almost becomes fluid, it gets a nice shine.
5 December 13, 2016
Weight added to the nose to prevent tailsitting.
6 December 13, 2016
Airbrushed Revell 9 Anthracite the cockpit parts & nosecone. Could not mask the wheels properly. Had to do them by brush 🙁
7 December 13, 2016
Revell 57 Grey for the cockpit itself, seats, canopy mount & inner walls.
8 December 13, 2016
Finished the seats with Revell 67 Greenish Grey, Vallejo Model Air Red & White. Undercarriage and turbine with Revell 90 Silver. Tried the trick with the extra paint on the turbine and nearly drowned the fanblades....
9 December 15, 2016
Underwing fueltanks & rocketpods primed matt black (Ammo 2005)
10 December 15, 2016
The turbineblades were too shiny. Added a deep brown line wash (Ammo 1618). Now it's less shiny and the fanblades are more pronounced.
11 December 15, 2016
Used the same brown wash on the lower gear. I like the contrast better than on the top gear, which isn't done yet.
12 December 15, 2016
Fuselage joined. There will be some minor filling and sanding. I hate filling and sanding 🙁
13 December 15, 2016
The underside's in as well.
14 December 15, 2016
Glued both wing halves together. Later noticed there were tiny gaps on the leading edges. Tried to fill them with Tamiya extra thin cement. Hoping for a good result 😉
15 December 15, 2016
Both wingtip tanks glued. Fit seems ok. Glued the canopy to its mount & masked both for painting. Mind the gap at the back of the canopy.... Need to think of something 🙁
16 December 15, 2016
Wings glued on. Dry fit of tail, aileron, wingtip tanks & windscreen/canopy
17 December 16, 2016
Masked the cockpit itself. Hope I did a good job for a first time.
18 December 16, 2016
Glare shield airbrushed Revell 302 Satin Black. Tail & wingtips airbrushed in grey primer Ammo 2002
19 December 16, 2016
Tail & wingtips airbrushed Vallejo White. This should bring out the red more....
20 December 20, 2016
Tail & wingtips airbrushed Vallejo Red.
21 December 20, 2016
Looks like the white 'primer' did the trick.
22 December 20, 2016
I'm starting to dislike my airbrush. It's mercilessly showing my bad modelling skills. In the old days I'd just plaster this with red paint from a brush....
23 December 21, 2016
Masked the red parts and primed Alclad gloss black. Tempted to rip off the masks and leave her like this :-0
24 December 22, 2016
As I don't have a lacquer Aluminium paint, I decided to do the highlights first, using Alclad Duraluminum. Next step is the regular aluminum, using Aqua Revell 99
25 December 24, 2016
After masking airbrushed the rest with Revell 99 Aluminium.
26 December 24, 2016
After removing the masks, the colours seem ok. I like the contrast between de alloys and the red.... But some of the alclad came off. Must try to repair this 🙁
27 December 27, 2016
Touched up the duraluminum. Not perfect though. I'm thinking this could become a nice weathering practice....
28 December 29, 2016
Added windscreen, canopy & tailsection
29 December 29, 2016
The Iron back of the engine & the aluminun are too much alike. Thinking about adding some Alclad Burnt Iron for some more contrast
30 December 29, 2016
For the same reason sprayed some Jet Exhaust (A.Mig-8208) on the exhaust nozzle & protection plates
31 December 29, 2016
Damn. Even with the weight and extra weight in the nosecone, she's still a tailsitter!
32 December 29, 2016
Added some weight to the front of the rocketpods. Saved!
33 January 7, 2017
'Primed' the edges and rockets in white, for further painting.
34 January 7, 2017
Painted the rim with Revell 310 Lufthansa Yellow.
35 January 7, 2017
Rockets painted red (Revell 330 Fiery Red). Pods need a little touch up around the edges, to get rid of the excess white. A little black wash between the rockets wouldn't hurt either.
36 January 7, 2017
Fainted the lady's behind with Burnt Iron 😉
37 January 7, 2017
Glued the exhausts, deflection plates & main gear hatches.
38 January 7, 2017
Glued the rocketpods and started decalling. Man these things are so thick, the panellines have a hard time getting through.
39 January 7, 2017
Out of frustration decided to unmask the canopy, which added to the frustration. There's still some masking tape on the inside #imanidiot
40 January 7, 2017
After removing the internal masking & reglueing the canopy, she's becoming a lovely lady again.
41 January 12, 2017
My anti-glare paint is a bit smallish. Tried to correct this with the decal. Not a good idea, scrapped.
42 January 12, 2017
After a lot of Decal Soft and brushing, this decal is finally getting into the panel lines.
43 January 12, 2017
Same here.
44 January 12, 2017
The larger decals are in place.

Album info My second try to build a (fully) airbrushed model. Using mostly Revell Aqua colors, a hint of Vallejo Model Air, and a drop op Alclad 'Jet Exhaust'.
