Well they settled down a little more. Some spots look like crap but can't do anymore to them at this point. Now time to start the weathering. Any ideas how to dirty it up? Not used to weathering one with all that raised detail.

I weathered mine with a light coat of Mig dark wash and it worked perfect for me. If you're interested just let me know. I'll describe my process.
The decals from the Hasegawa Dauntless work great for sucking down around the rivet details.

Dry applications of light grey chalk with a bit of wet water (two drops of dishwashing soap per half cup water. Get those decals as light as possible. Then add red, brown and dark grey chalks to the underside. Follow that with brown ink to simulate oil leaks. I am advising you to stay away from enamel and oils and use water soluble media. Once that looks good, I would seal with Future then splatter with more ink at the wing roots. Final coat of UV Flat.

Yes! I'd love to know your process. Did you have raised or recessed details?mustang1989 wrote:I weathered mine with a light coat of Mig dark wash and it worked perfect for me. If you're interested just let me know. I'll describe my process.
