I'd go with Tamiya's masking tape for curves, it works great.

Great job, sir! Welcome!

Wow! I've the D-9 on the Revell box, it's the Eduard one without the extras.. following here too!

So kind of you, my friend! Thanks a lot!

Thank you very much, sir! Wouldn't it be great to have one of this back in shape? Those sailors were brave

Thank you, my friend! My next naval project is kind of ambitious... 1/35 PT Boat 596 by Italeri... hope to get it going early next year

Great job! Figures are not easy to paint, but you got a very natural result

Nice to meet you too, sir! This is a great forum, lots of nice information and conversations. I'm a little away from the bench now, but hope to get my mojo back asap. I've seen a couple of your builds and liked it very much! Thank you!!

Exactly... and I also like that sweet smell... :).. but, don't you get a lot of tip drying with a 0.2 needle? I found it hard to use even with a 0.3mm.. but as soon as I started to use a 0.5, all the problems were gone

Although it's a controversial paint, I really like Vallejo, especially because it's water-based. They are very resistant and you can spray a lot with very little paint. I use a 0,5mm needle and thin it with tap water and one or two flow improver drops. Mistakes happen, thankfully not all paints...

You got it right, my friend, with taxes and shipping, I must have spent almost US$200 on this Vallejo suitcase, and I thought it would last forever... Like you said, onwards and upwards.. making mistakes is what you learn!

Will do it and post the result here.. it seems to be very robust and heavy after drying

I also have that DAS modelling clay, do you think it could melt on the paint? I'm still trying to find some use for it..

I bought one of those China agitators that are intended for nail polish, it works ok with Vallejo eyedropper bottles, but nothing like a bearing.. Epoxy putty may work fine, but I'd go for the cheap ones, not Tamiya's... lol

thank you, Baron! As I live in Brazil, I think that none of these have any branches here, but we do have nice art & craft supply stores, some are nearby, and I'll look for those glass beads. Nice idea about the beading wire, will search for it too! Have a nice weekend, sir!

great tip... I've heard glass bearings also work pretty fine, but can't find it here. I didn't go for the cheap ones, these are branded and used for air guns.. but still... (or steel?) :confused:

yes, at least I bought it as if it were.. now every paint will come out already 'wheathered'..

Here

:mad::mad: Despite having been told not to put steel spheres (inox) into my paint jars, I did it anyway… so, this is the result. Now I can’t either pull it out or clean the frigging paint. I have at least 30 bottles this way…That’s how you waste money.

I'd start with the tail hair.. might really work Jokes apart, he seems to be a funny pet
