This is a kit I started a while back and put aside when I compared it to the new tool Airfix Zero. Sometimes I get to a point in a build and just stop for a couple of weeks or more, usually because I get distracted by something else. The result is a shelf full of half built kits that I revisit when I feel like it or more often I build a load of kits until I get to the primer/paint stage then blitz a load in a single spraying session. I don't have a permanently set up spray area.
So here's one I started earlier, it will be the USN version with some weathering. I read Mig's shipping effect magazine yesterday and was intrigued by an IJN torpedo bomber with chipped painwork.
So far I have primed this and sprayed it silver then I used "chipping effects" sprayed with an A/B on the centreline and LG area of the underside and along the wing root walkways. I sprayed the underside light grey and it's drying as we speak.
