1/72 Admiral Spitfire mkVb

Post by Fermis »

Finished this one up last week...

Being a limited run kit, it was in pretty rough shape, however, surface detail is quite fine and much better than most kits in this scale.

To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I mix my own, using acrylic craft paint, water and a drop or two of dish soap.
I have a couple mixes on hand.
One is "Raw Umber", fairly thin for an all over wash. Dirties up wheel wells, cockpits, engines real nice without over doing it.
Another is about 50/50 "Raw Umber / Black", for panel line washes in some cases.
The other is about 85/15 "Black / Raw Umber", also for panel lines.
