Looking good Roman, am about to prime my 1/48 Academy F-14A. Have had some serious fit issues + my first attempt a major re-scribing. Needless to say yours is looking better than mine.....boo hoo!

Keep up the good work

All the best

Looking good Roman. The pinkish red, is that normal or a later scheme? The pictures I have seen of that scheme appear to be more red than pink.

 

[Vajled]

On real time eye sight are red pic is not so good...



And I have used vallejo equivalent colors of FS Light and Dark Ghost Grey... Vellejo Light Grey and US Grey...

I think also the tone of US Grey is little bit to dark than othercolors Dark Ghost Grey

I have look FS conversation and got this:

I think Testors is more lighter and Vallejo is more darker for same FS... who is right?

I use Vallejo, finding their equivalent paint can be quite tricky sometimes.

fantastic colors, my pick No1... but you are right about equivalents, usually are great, this is first time that I miss something with them
