F4U1 Corsair complete

Since I just joined I figure I'd show my most recent build a F4U1 Corsair by Hobby Boss. Great fun and a well rounded kit. Utilizing Mr.Hobby lacquers but flatcote is Mr. Hobby Aqueous.

Fantastic finish. Weathering looks spot on.

Hey thanks, yeah I'm coming to realize in many ways it's my finest build so far.

Tell me about how you did the rust effect in the seams and panel lines.

 

[Modulwhatuluv]

I used Tamiya black panel liner to start, on a gloss overcoat then I slightly dry brushed silver, very lightly. After that I just laid lines of Burnt Sienna with a slight touch of Raw Umber Oil paints mixed in and swiped it length wise along seems with a brush, lastly evened out edges with q-tips . I didn't use any thinner cause it tends to just become another wash!

It's definitely a fine line as to if it's too much or too little lol
