JohnLove the colors and camo on this. I agree with Spanjarrd, would like to know the colors too.

annie shikinami Authorthanks! colors were Mr. Color c374 and c375. sprayed over a light grey primer to keep them from appearing too dark. highlights were done afterwards with a little white mixed into the c374.

Zsolt NovákSorry for not being enthusiastic, but the colours are very faded as this plane would stand 20 years long under the direct sunlight, but strangely all the markings which done with decals look like as fresh painted. It is following the modelling trends but totally unrealistic. There is a photo on the box cover and tons of pictures of this very plane, you must have seen that your shades are completely wrong...

annie shikinami AuthorZsolt Novák yeah im aware. this was a very casual build to that i used to practice a few things that i don't normally do, one of those being post shading/highlights.
if i was concerned with accuracy i wouldn't have done so. i also would have made sure to install the drag chute, middle canopy support, air data probe, and i would have painted the brass AOA probes on the radome instead of hastily installing them at the very end. there's even seams visible on parts of the radome and fuel tanks!
i personally don't think it's very good, but i suppose i wasn't really trying to make it very good. nevertheless, it seems to be one my most liked builds both on here and instagram. go figure!

CaptGPFI personally LOVE IT. Sometimes, a bit of creativity and artistic freedom can create the most beautiful builds - and the popularity of this build (the tonal variations, the excellent fading and overall build) is not surprising to me.
