SPA Modeler

I had some overspray with my red and white Komet. So I learned better to be safe the sorry the hard way.

That’s coming along very nicely Borg. I really like the dark topside scheme.

After more then a year (!) I finally sprayed the underside of the Hind. I started this build to be a quick and easy one. After all, what could possibly go wrong with a Hasegawa kit? Well it wasn’t the kit, it was me and life and everything. So this was also my first airbrush session in over a year. That is not good for you skills but fortunately grey is an easy and forgiving colour to spray.
I also removed the masking after that. There are a few traces of the tape. But that is to be expected after such a long time. All in all I am happy that this build has some progress.

Good to see this one back on track.

Airbrushing is like with biking, the skills get rusty but after one session you are back to normal again!
Very nice camo!

That looks excellent man! Beautiful job on the camouflage!

A little teaser shot of the Hind. It looks like it is almost ready. But that is not true, I have to gloss coat, decals, wash, detail paint and flat coat. But temporarily assembling helps to keep me motivated.

Nice work! Those are amazing birds.

I gloss coated the Hind in preparation decals and wash. Gloss coat was Future thinned with Gunze lacquer thinner.

That looks fantastic! Far better than any of mine!
