Sprayed Hataka Light Gull Grey - allowed to dry for an hour or so, then masking removed
A bit messy around the nose - but I'll be masking that off for the black radome & anti-glare panel.
The Hataka Red Line paint is a bit tricky to use - even though it's meant to be ready to a/b, I find I have to dilute it quite a bit - it's essential to shake well, and dilute & mix in a separate cup - I tried mixing it in the
airbrush cup, that didn't go well!
I'll have to smooth the demarcation line between grey & white on the wings - a slight lip of paint has built up, then I have to add the natural metal leading edges, on the wings. slats intakes etc - not sure about how to mask them, so a little experimentation is in order.
