Nice build, thanks! You mentioned you might try spraying Molotow chrome. You want to buy a replacement/refill bottle and shake it before use. Spray wet coats without thinning (no need for black undercoat). Personally I think it’s amazing. Applying it with the pens can cause clumping, whereas airbrushing is consistently gorgeous.

I have an old release kit of this model. I keep taking it out and looking at it and putting it back. Maybe this time I may actually build it. Two suggestions: I usually paint and decal the instrument panel before assembling it. It makes things a bit easier. Second, Wingnut Wings is sadly, no more but on their website (still running at this time) they have an excellent process for doing wood texture painting. Nice build!

What a great build the finish was excellent. Can I ask a question I have just got into the hobby again after a long break when you use your airbrush with varnish what do you clean it with after and do you use another airbrush for painting or the same one thanks for your time. Carl

@ModellingWeekly 2 жыл бұрын

Hi! Glad you enjoyed :) Yeah, for varnishing and priming I use another airbrush purely because they're harder things to clean, and also I don't like to get the Infinity too dirty 😂 But jokes aside, for cleaning varnish you can just use isopropyl alcohol, which is what I use for all airbrush cleaning purposes. Anything stronger like thinners or heavy-duty cleaners may damage the seals in your airbrush

Fantastic work! Do you recall about what thinner dilution you were using when you did the yellow camo?

@ModellingWeekly 2 жыл бұрын
