Nice idea. Sounds and looks interesting. Something not see often on exibitions. Mostly with tanks or cars but never saw something like this with a plane or helicopter.

Nice project Phil ! First I thought it would be a shame to ruin such a nice helicopter, but I have to admit that I was wrong and it is becoming something special now. Nice painting technique you are using, and I like the broken windows. I'm pretty sure that in the end it will look like a real wreck !

That hairspray technique is looking very good Philip. I want to try it also on some of my builds but am a bit uncertain of using it. But when I see what you did with this build I'm sure gone give it a try.

Hi Eric, it's the first time I used this technic, it works really great, with the acryl paints from tamiya, no problems, the acryl paints from Mr color are a little bit stronger and is it a little harder work to get it off, don't wait to long to get it off, I've reed some where 2 days it's the max but I've don't wait that mutch, just let it dry and take it off, greetz Phil

These hairspraymethod seems to work well, i have to try it out! Phil you achieved a very old torn and worn helo! Wonderful!
21 February 2012, 08:14

Hi Holger, I'm really sedisfided about the hairspray method, the rotor and blades is the next thing I will do this evening, thanks for your comment, greetz Phil

Hi Philip, the bird looks very distressed! The paint job looks like the car that I drove back at university!! 🙂
I have now learned two weathering techniques, the hairspray method and the liquid masking solution method (from Roland). This is a great forum to be on! Thank you Scalemates!
