The colour for the hull turned out OK. It's a mix of sky grey and white. Just getting used to the distance to hold the airbrush. I think I held it too far at some points and got a sort of grainy effect.


1 or 2 places I might have just over painted and got some build up, but it's not too bad.


This is the first stage of masking for the blue panels. There appear to be 3 different shades of blue panelling. You can't really see from this photo, but the darker shade is too dark and the lighter shades appear slightly green. Not sure what to do here, but I'll definately need to go over the dark blue again with a lighter shade.


Also notice that my masking tape wasn't stuck down right in a couple of places. You can make out the worst of the leak just below the bridge section. I need to be more careful.


Overall, I'm pretty happy. Things aren't going too badly.  It's very difficult to learn this way, but it's still good fun.
