Well Gabor... this one looks like a kit for the experts. But as I know from your former works this one will be excellent again.
Happy modelling mate!

Thank You! Yes, this kit is horrible 🙂 but the onéy Comet between the 10 USD Airfix and the 300 USD Aerotech 🙂

I am looking forward to the final result of your work. I am sure it will be excellent just as Christian said.

Well Gabor, as I mentioned before.... This is a kit for the experts and You are one of them. It`s unbelievable what you did with this kit!
Whished I had your skills. One question, what primer do you use for this finish? Best regards mate !

Thank You Christian! I used car fine primer from rattlecan first as the kit's material is full of air bubbles. i sanded it with 800/1000/1200 grit sandpaper and primed again with Tamiya white primer and sanded again. The final coat - as You may seen - is Tamiya TS-14 Black decanted from the can and added with airbrush. Be aware with this paint however is marketed as true lacquer reacts badly to any isopropil alcohol based paints (and compounds). if I made it again I would use Alclad balack or simply Gunze Mr. color gloss black instead, but so far so good now...
