Thank you - I used it to test the paint and techniques for the Catalina. Maybe I will finally fix the colours a little bit and but it into flight display

The Hataka paint is a pain to spray. The only way to make it work is to use 20-50% Tamiya thinner and mix very well OUTSIDE of the airbrush (no joke). I also used quite high pressure (2.5- 3.5 bar). But the shade of the paint is just perfect.
And one more thing: It doesn't work well with AK "worn effects" aka "Hairspray" method. The paint comes off in big chunks - see picture.

I used Tamiya's F4U which happened to be in my stash to test which paint to use for my Catalina on the bench.
