Re: TJ's Six
Got some paint on today. Took 3/4 of a bottle of ADC grey. Geez. Let it dry for a day then spray the black nose tomorrow

3/4 of a bottle? Like a Model Master 1/2 oz. bottle? That’s a lot of paint on a 1/48 fighter!

Almost 3/4 of AK 10ml bottle. The 106 is as big as an F-15. The wings alone took an airbrush cup full

Ok, that I can see… a 10ml bottle makes a bit more sense for the amount you described.

No touch. Must let dry....no touch
Re: TJ's Six
John, that is lovely! Much nicer than mine. I just stripped all the paint from the cockpit forward. Someday, I’ll get it finished.
