Started yet another model to have something to work on while I wait for the others to be ready for their next steps.

Welcome Neil, looks like we have a Corsair group build coming on.

Neil
Yes mate, may I politely suggest adding yours to the Devotion movie group build also? 👍

Skyhiker Аутор
Not sure how to do that. Any suggestions?

Skyhiker Аутор
Figured it out on my own.

Neil
Excellent! 👍

Alberto

A bit of progress today.

Skyhiker Аутор
Finally got some time to work on my model again.

Skyhiker Аутор
Got the decals done

Alberto
Looking good 👍. What colours did you use?

Skyhiker Аутор
I used Ammo Acrylic colors, which suck to spray but are a dream to brush with. I started by spraying but ended up brushing most of it anyway.
The colors are FS25042 Sea Blue (Ana 606) and FS35164 Interm (Ana 608)

Alberto
Interesting info, I didn't know that. Thanks Skyhiker 👍

Nicolas
I take a seat.

Guy Rump
Looking good, following. 👍

Skyhiker Аутор
Took me forever but I finally finished it!

Urban Gardini
Nice build!
A tip about AMMO's acrylis is that the spray best if you dilute them with AK's Real Colors High Compabillity Thinner. Oh the irony that an AMMO product works best together with an AK product...

Skyhiker Аутор
Urban thanks for the tip. I'll try that out since I have some AK Real Colors High Compatibility Thinner on my shelf, but I switched to acrylics from lacquers avoid the heavy chemicals.

Urban Gardini
No problem mate! I did a serious test with all my different thinners a couple of years ago and the result was a bit of a surprise.

Guy Rump
Very nice result! 👍

Skyhiker Аутор
Thanks Guy, I'll eventually have some better photos made of my builds. But for now these will have to do.

Bernd Grün
It turns out phantastic. Congrats, mate! 👌

Skyhiker Аутор
Thanks Bernd

Jennifer Franklin
Nice build!

Skyhiker Аутор
Thanks Jennifer, glad to see you back.

Neil
Lovely work mate! 👏 turned out great! I've finished mine also for this group build. I gotta get pics uploaded too 👍

Skyhiker Аутор
Thanks Neil. The group build was fun. It's nice to other people's approach to the same subjects. Let me know if you join any other group builds.

Skyhiker Аутор
I finally framed this one.

Jennifer Franklin
Nicely framed
