TorstenI build this in the past, looking forward to see your work. The chrome parts are a challange

JDCockpit is primed, Anakin is primed white, leaving some yellow undertones, and I'll use different washes to bring him out.. The canopy is masked, (my first one, actually) while I try and color match to the body, and contemplate using enamels vs. acrylics. I welcome your ideas and comments..

GamerLevelDadLooking forward to see how that chrome turns out. I've seen some really nice on YouTube from the Alclad line up and in person with AK Xtreme Metal. I'll have to get this kit at some point so I have an excuse to get a set of those paints.

JDI really like the chrome as it is right out of the box, there are awesome iridescent and hologram like rainbows going on that I would never be able to replicate. I may try a filter of some kind to tone down the chrome possibly.. I'm on a crash course of learning how to do a proper aircraft canopy..

GamerLevelDadAwesome glad to hear about the chrome. Looking forward to see how you finish this and the Threepio kit.
Feel free to PM me / add or whatever, I can go over what I do for the canopies.

JDThanks GamerLevelDad. On my first attempt, I made lots of rookie mistakes, the worst one was jumping the gun with the masking and paint, when I should have learned how to sand and polish the canopy first..

Roman Modelaryou can use Gauzy Agent from AK to "polish" the canopy when the color is already applied

Chaz GordonNice job. Tricky to tell apart from the metal version of this kit. I picked up a couple way back when Asda were selling SW kits off in bulk.

JDThank you all very much. 😄 And a special nod to you aircraft enthusiasts because canopy work is hard!

Chaz GordonKeying canopy frames is a real pain. WW2 canopies are the hardest with all those bars to paint. I just hand paint under a big magnifier in small increments. Ig my hand starts to get unsteady, I just let it dry for a while, so wiping any future mistakes with water don't put me back to the start.
