Global warming baby! WOOHOO!!!!

Global warming my @$$....

Gunship Grey is on! Pics forthcoming once it's dried.

FYI... home from work due to my allergies kicked into high gear. Didn't sleep well last night. I hate this time of year with pollen getting bad. I'll soldier on. Rain is in the forecast later tonight thru Thursday.

Man, you just gotta get used to the global warming. It will get worse! You can set your satchel down on that.

Undersides painted Light Ghost Grey (AK Real Color)




Topside/wing rails Model Master Neutral Grey, main body from canopy to rear Dark Gunship Grey (Tamiya Dark Grey)

**Nose is painted Model Master Gunship Grey (no photo yet but slightly lighter than Tamiya Dark Grey)





A little bit research on what to paint the static dischargers on this bird. They can be painted black/dark grey yet some photos say they can appear metallic black.

I'm thinking of going with Model Master Black Metallic. It will appear as black but less metallic in color.
