I would like to submit this photo of my model Grace which I took with a 70mm lens Samsung automatic camera. It is basically out of the box with a few touches in the cockpit (new instrument panel, cables, seat belts and the window panel behind the pilot seat added) and the engine (I doubt anybody could see those even from up close). I also detailed the torpedo rig and the landing gear well and legs. |
| I used Tamiya acrylic paints for the overall camouflage and oils for weathering and exhaust smoke marks. Paint chipping was simulated by scratching paint off in areas covered in BMF (according to photos of the real a/c). Also most of the model has a Humbrol Metalcote aluminium undercoat. The base "runway" was painted using oils. The photo was touched up in the computer to enlarge the runway. Many Thanks, Aghis (01 Feb 01) | |
