This was my little project to work on over the holiday break in December. I don’t really build jet planes, so I did not stress too much about this. I just wanted to have fun with painting and weathering. This was quite a good pick for this kind of a project. The kit was simple to put together and did not have too many parts.
After spraying the first layer with MRPAINT, it was clear that the colors are way too saturated and some were really dark. So, I had to do several passes to lighten the paint. I left behind the dark panel lines which are a little too exaggerated. But, that’s ok. We live and learn...
