1/72 wings glossed and ready for decals
7 June 3, 2024
One half of the wing decals done on the 1/72. There are no Yellow decals for the underside of the wings on the 1/144 kit so I probably need to paint those in as I like how they look on the bigger one.
8 June 9, 2024
Wing decals complete. Did a bit of masking on the small ones and sprayed with a 50/50 mix of medium yellow and white to match the big ones.

Wings gloss coated over the decals and then drybrushed with Abteilung Smoke oil paints. They need a few days to dry now.
11 June 11, 2024
Bit of detail painting on the pilot and had a go with one of the R2 heads at hand painting it. Could be better, lets see what the decal one looks like before I decide whether to use it
12 June 11, 2024

24 June 13, 2024
Oil paints are now dry on the wings so they get a coat of matt varnish.
25 June 14, 2024
The decals on the R2 droid head didn't turn out very well so I'm definately looking at using a painted head of either the R2 or R5
26 June 14, 2024
With bodies painted in the same colour, I'm leaning towards the R5 head
27 June 15, 2024
Decals done and ready for another gloss coat then oil paint to make them dirty.
