I get where you’re coming from on your color goal with the PC.10. The Mr Hobby & Mr Color versions of OD are really good stuff as well. They have three in each color line, acrylic & lacquer, and each distinctly different from each other.

That is brilliant Bruce. I can't wait to see how that turns out.

Thank you, Mike, Carlos and Duke for your replies! It’s been a long road with many fits and starts. I just now set up my air brush when my neighbors were out and sprayed the Olive Drab Aircraft color. I’m going to let the paint cure while I run errands then I’ll be back to take photos. Thank you all.
Make more models!

Cool - painting has commenced. Looking forward to seeing it Bruce.

Photographed on one of my Dad’s ceramic cigar holders; the colors are quite copacetic, don’t you think?
Well. Gosh. Darn. There’s a chip. So many layers, there was bound to be an issue like this. Well I’m a gonna mask and just feather the PC10 over this. Thoughts?

Bummer about the chip on the edge of the cowling. But that looks like an easy repair.

Carlos!! I'm thinking I might daub a small amount of acrylic on that chip to bring the surface level. My Dad used to use a match from a pack of matches as a paint dauber. Wow, this build is evoking so many past memories! That's one of the reasons I love this hobby so much. Good childhood or not so good childhood there is something akin to comfort food about building an old kit, isn't there?
