Re: NYLON GAG MK 1?
Evenin All,
Thank you so much guy's, it mean's alot to me that you take the time to comment.
Sooooooooooooooo, paint.
I've said before, i don't like to paint much because it never turns out how i expect it to, but, so far i am very happy at how it's looking,
I think i'm a little more confident than the last time i made a model, which was about 12 years ago.
I am, in fact enjoying it so far.... ;D
But enough of my waffle
PIX
First i had to finish up the tail section.
Added some detail do-dads on the front of the main wings
Finished, i think, building wise, apart from the cockpit interior and exterior. There are some assemblies to add but that's it for the main stuff.
I removed the masking from the hitch assembly drivers.
The back section is going to be the same white mix as the wing backs, but first i lay down X-11 Crome silver, Vallejo Gun then XF-1 Flat Black Pre-shade,
I did the same thing to all the little assemblies
Added some burn marks with the Flat Black on the back wing panels
Gave the hitch assembly drivers a very lite Black & then brown pastel wash.
Future, hairspray and salt, then the White, silver light grey, buff mix.
But thats next time
Stay tuned

Re: NYLON GAG MK 1?
Morning Folks,
Thanks everyone, appreciate you stopping by.
Still weathering and painting the back detail assemblies.
I removed the salt and further chipped the paint with a sharpened chop stick
Then i applied several black and brown pastel washes on all the rear assemblies
slowly building up the effect.
These panels are still a bit lighter than the wing back sections, so i will finish them with my AK products when they are in position.
I wanted to see how much the actuators would affect the overall colour balance of the back section
so i did some assembly work.
I also added the fuel delivery tube.
I then attached all the wires for the actuators, these will be painted and weathered later.
I decided to do some more assembly on the hitch mechanism.
I put on the generator covers
Put it in position to see how it looks
Added the hitch ball and the support arms and most of the assembly for a quick dry fit
I couldn't resist so i dry fit all of the wing back details to see how we were looking
I cannot tell you how pleased i am with the overall look of the back section.
You have a picture in your head of how you want it to look but nothing compares to seeing it all painted and assembled.
A quick video.
Dry fit of back details
Yes, that is me giggling, it's the vodka again ;D
No, i do not live in a public toilet that background noise is from my fish tank.
I am very very happy with it.
Next is final weathering with AK products and some dry brushing and maybe another wash or two.
What do you think friends?
