Sorry to chip in, MS, but this may help you in the future.
When you remove the chrome, there's a residue underneath. That's sometimes, the reason why there's imperfections in the chrome. The residue is some form of clear coat, that's used before the chrome? That can be removed by soaking in brake fluid, for a while. I've had this issue, mainly with Revell chrome, and it doesn't look great. Sometimes, there's a huge blob, and they just chrome over it. Quality control, needs a kick up the butt, at the factory.
Hope this helps you.

Spanjaard
looking really good

MS K

Robert Podkoński
I'm a little late, but from now I will be watching this talent show for sure 🙂

Matteo Pescarin
thanks a lot of sharing, now I'm intrigued... what printer do you have you can use a white toner with it???

Bruce Huxtable
Liking your 'no problem is insurmountable' attitude, and the results 🙂 Inspiring work for sure 🙂

MS K
@Matteo Pescarin - There are printers that can use white custom toner. However, it is not as opaque as the commercial decals, so it honestly falls below my expectations.
What I use is ghost white toner.
At first, I planned to buy an Alps printer, but I had no choice but to give up because it only supported Windows XP.

Spanjaard
I did not know about this ghost white, or is a pitty that just one cartridge seems to be about 300Eur, and if you say that the quality is not good enough......

Martin Oostrom
Exquisite guide MS K. You are a superb modeler.

Sy Bar
Can't wait for the bringing together of all your hard work 🍿👍

Looks good so far! I think the Tamiya colors look fine!

Cristian A
Thanks Michael for the input, the more I look at the two Tamiya colors the more inclined I get to use them, also I already have them and they are of good quality.

Will continue to post progress.

Looks good so far. Following.
How good and detailed do you think the kit is?

Cristian A
Hi Shar, the details are good enough for a 16 EUR kit but the build is not easy, struggled a lot with the canopy and cockpit. It's not a perfect representation of the real Alligator as it is built after the initial variant / prototype (EOP above, no camouflage scheme and paint references for it, no countermeasure system under the back landing gear and the nose is a bit different as well). The panel lines are recessed, so hopefully weathering will go smooth.

Shar Dipree
Thanks Cristian. I wish you success.

Cristian A
Thanks Shar, I wish you the same.

What kind of mixing ratio did you use for the ak paint?
