Tamiya 1/48 Me 262

I am converting this Tamiya Me 262 to wheels up. Finished sanding and priming. I did a rush job on the cock pit and pilot, but I am not into cockpits right now. I am going to try the new AMMO by Mig ATOM paints. The primer is AMMO One Shot.

Nice. How do you like the primer?

Quite a bit! It works just like Stynylrez. I have a self imposed limit of not using "hot" primers, or rattle cans. So this is a good alternative to a really good one like Mr Surfacer.

Thanks I might give it a try. I'm on a no primer kick right now but I may have to give that a try. I like Stynylrez but it does have a smell to it. Nothing harsh but it stinks.

Nice. I may have to try that primer as well.

To be honest, I just sort of blasted it on. It self levels really well.

Finished painting, panel lining, and a gloss coat. I will not do too much weathering on this one. Tamiya kit with Hobby Boss paint scheme and decals

The conversion came out great! What color or mixture did you use for the underside? It's like the best example of a "pale" RLM 76. I've started a mixture but still hues too "blue"

I used the new AMMO by MiG ATOM paints, and it was RLM 76

This is done. I should take a picture
