IDF Super Churchill Pt3 

Thanks Josh!

Glad it was helpful!

Links to the first parts in is in the description, including the Live Stream link. One of my Patreons is a retired IDF tank commander and he was very clear with me that they would use whatever they could get their hands in those days. He fully endorsed this idea as definitely plausible if some Churchill's were on hand. Enjoy, cheers!

Thanks Timothy, and definitely more to follow

Thanks again!

Hi Robert, apologies for the delayed reply, YT had your comment hidden for some reason. Great to hear, and yes, I use the poly. It used for glossier finishes and also to help with lower layers not wanted to be affected by the water when chipping off the top layers. No, MMP is a singular ecosystem, I don't recommend cross mixing with other paints. Same with the airbrush, keep it pure and no alcohol or lacquer thinner used at all for anything (thinning, cleaning, etc.) with MMP.

Typically, you can chip as soon as its dry for almost all paints, MMP included. I like to say once the airbrush is cleaned is a good amount of time before you can begin. Longer is never a big deal either with MMP due to their activation qualities with water, and why they’re so flexible for this type of work.

@@rs.p thank you for the prompt reply, I appreciate this! Will absolutely be giving it a shot on my next kit.

Hi Steve, great question and armor tends to get a lot more weathered layers on top, so it makes sense from an efficiency standpoint to work in the chips with paint as shown here. On many aircraft, as demo'd on the P-61 -- since very little additional weathering comes into play on top of the paint wear & tear doing this form via OPR is very efficient. It's by no means a hard rule, but a general guideline, and for sure a combo of both is going to be very effective too, whether OPR is the prime process or the tuning apparatus, after the fact.

Thanks Mike. Great help much appreciated
