Very nice painting job and weathering 👍. I have the same question that Thomas.

Tzonglin Wu
Thank you all for your likes.
For me, this time is also an experiment. It's my first time to build a kit like this way.
I'm looking for a quick way to save time while I'm busy at work.
This time I didn't use primer or do pre-shading.
I airbrushed whole fuselage with the main color.
Then refer to photos, hand brushed the darker and lighter colors to create difference.
I think this make the shade effect.
Until this process, only water-based acrylic paint had been used.
In the #13~#15 pictures shown, I have used Mr. Weathering's black to create the panel line.
Yesterday, I covered the plane with mat varnish, I found that the contrast became smaller.
I think I should increase the contrast before the mat varnish in the future.
My weathering process is not over yet.
Oil paints, color pencils, etc. may be used to enhance the effect.

Cuajete
Thank you so much, Tzonglin Wu 👍

Romain Sablou
Nice weathering, we can clearly see that you worked closely with photos references. What did you use for the main color ?

Erik Leijdens
Looking great Tzonglin! Love the way you've weathered it

Tzonglin Wu
Hi, Romain. I mixed that color by myself. I selected a photo as reference and mixed grey, blue, black and white to approach the photo.

Final picts are top-notch, so as the model in itself ! Damn, I've got the same kit waiting in stash, but you set the bar high !

Neuling
Same as Robert! 👍👍

Ekki
Excellent result!
Well done!

Cuajete
Wow... Great job. Fantastic painting job and weathering. Congrats!

Very nice couples! What decals did you use with the Skyray? Thanks!

Tzonglin Wu
Romain, you are so modest. I have watched your B-26. It is incredible.
Cuajete, I painted and used self-made decals for the Skyray.
You can see the process from here:

I think Google translate can help you.

Christoph Kunz
Looks like a lot of scratch...
Taking my seat.

Sergio Ordonez
Oh, yes, Christoph. The internals of Revell model are very far from the real thing. Also, navigator's round seat is not present in the model. Basing this job on another's mate work and some photos of an Australian Swordfish survivor, I Will try to enhance this one.

Олег О
Could you sign the photos so that it is clear what you have finalized in the model? I also want to build one. I will be happy to use your experience.Thank you.

Finn
Me too

Sergio Ordonez
Thank you, mates. Hope to be on the level: Mauricio Rada Matamoros model is impressive for this size. I mean, I think I cannot add mich more to his approach than base mine in an existing real example and try.
Oner, sorry, but I cannot understand what you mean with 'sign the photos". Do you mean writting the date on It?

Dave Flitton
Watching!.

Ben M
Very nice t-33

Lost_Erik

N'oublie pas de bien diluer ta peinture ! 🙂

Promis

David Taylor
I see you have the sand tires on.French foreign Legion perhaps.

Francois Royer de Vericourt
My intention is to do a véhicule used by a French paratroop regiment in Algeria.
Not certain of what tires they had ; may have changes depending on the periode ans the area of operation..

Lost_Erik
Ahhh. The process...
How do you like the brass set?

Francois Royer de Vericourt
The Edouard set is nice but requires somme additional scratch.
If one intends toi leave hatches closes, then Eduard set isn't realy required.

David Taylor
I have the interior set from Scorpion miniature models which is a very comprehensive set.

Francois Royer de Vericourt
Could you share some pictures of the kit or the instructions ?

Lost_Erik
Looking good!

David Taylor
Hi Francois.If you go to my stash list its all there.Failing that Scorpion Miniature models.

Francois Royer de Vericourt

David Taylor
Anytime.
