| Thanks for the compliments. The model was painted with a Badger 150 airbrush - the only way I know to get the soft mottling effect on these camouflage schemes. The knack is to have the paint well thinned and the airbrush pressure set to low - oh and lots of practice on a piece of card or similar to make sure the pressure and paint mix is ok before applying to the model. The splinter camouflage on the wings and upper fuselage is done freehand first and then the mottling blended in to match afterwards.
I have attached a couple more images with a bit more detail.
This aircraft was flown by Werner Molders in Russia in 1941. |
