Republic F-84G-1RE, 493rd Fighter Bomber Squadron, France 1952, TAMIYA 1/48

NMF replicated using Alclad 2 lacquers and Gunze Mr.HOBBY COLOR acrylics.
Built oob, I only added LionRoar PE seat belts and replaced the kit's decals with an Aeromaster sheet.

I love the yellow on that aircraft! What shade of yellow did you use?

summa cum laude.

Thanks gentlemen.

It's Gunze H413 RLM 04 Yellow from the Aqueous HOBBY COLOR range.
The yellow was sprayed over a coat of Gunze Mr.BASE WHITE 1000, actually being conceived as a white primer which can be also used (slightly diluted) as an excellent-covering semi gloss white topcoat.

I have Model Master's RLM 4 Yellow but I wonder if the shades are the same as Mr Color's.

In case we're talking about Model Master enamels, the variation is quite insignificant.

That is superb. I really like the variations in tone you've achieved with the NMF - great stuff.

Not the biggest 'Frank' lover, but I know a good build when I see one.

Back on bench or blast from the past?

the title "Dust Catcher" is so misleading! LoL its the contrary. I love your work and your presentations that are real professional and spotless. hmm... I am curious to know if they had been on some magazine I suppose?
