I really like the result. The variations of tone are subtle and very good, add a lot of interest to the eye. I will say, you can also do a final coat of your main color. Very thin paint (1:10 at least) and lightly applied with large nozzle (0.3-0.4mm) in overall spray, like a varnish coat. This will "unify" the paint according to the eye but still keep the tone variation. But careful, if applied too much, will cover up all the hard work of mottle patterns. Really good job!
Great Job. Very detailed and the color contrast is very nice. I have purchased this kit, but I want to know what type of airbrush , need size and pressure setting you are using to get those fine lines used when coloring.
thank you!! the airbrush is Mr.hobby PS270 0.2mm,thin down the paint and the pressure is about 15-20 psi,practice couple time and get use to the airbrush.. this is a good kit,take your time and enjoy it!😊
Not very famous because it saw no action. Only 120 were built before the war ended. I am glad you did not chip up & heavily weather it as no way would they have seen so much use that the paint would be worn or chipped. I bought this very kit because of a review that just said "Bad." I could not believe that so I got one. 5 years ago. I have not done it yet. Items 3D printed have put it & other kits on back burner.
1. It is a nice kit. 2. They saw combat. . 3. Japanese paint in tbe last months of the war was pretty weak. Look at aircraft flying from Japanese airfields in Japan and they look like they've been in service years instead of months. You can literally do what you want with the finish on Japanese aircraft in 1945.
