Strangely enough the blue paint was a bit translucent after the flat coat. I am not very happy about the end result but I am calling these done anyway.

Those came out nice. You can always call the light areas on the dark blue sea air salt stains...

Holy ghost so tiny they are!
Well done! My favorite is the Dauntless, just has that something special!

Re: Revell 1/144 Wildcat and Dauntless
Those came out excellent considering their size. You made them look as if they could be larger.

Re: Revell 1/144 Wildcat and Dauntless
Congratulations, Borg! I saw these earlier today but I had to run around and work today which basically I was not prepared to do, and I am late replying! I do find the scale itself to be such a fascination due to its ultimate challenge of size! It is one thing to build a large scale kit but it takes different muscles and magnification to build cleanly at this tiny size! You have done it!
Make more models!
Re: Revell 1/144 Wildcat and Dauntless
Those are itsy bitsy....Nice work.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!"..
