Wonderful build, Vitor but whats the black stuff you are washing with on pic 66?

That is oil paint and white spirit mixed until it look like the yogurt consistence.
I only remove it when it loose the shining aspcec (a mixture of burn umber and ivory black.
BUT ONLY WHEN THE PAINT IS SEALED WITH FUTURE/KLEAR!!!!! I can tell you that ii ruined some kits until i know how to do it 🙂

Hi Vitor,
it is the first C-160 that I`ve seen finished! Your`s is well built! The paintjob is very well done and the assembling is clean and profesional!
Sadly no Mungo or Wiesel is available in this scale!
But, doesn`t matter, this huge bird is a beauty!
