Almost done with the camouflage. Brush painted it. First time painting a camouflage like this. Still need to paint a second layer maybe a third if necessary over all the spots.
I've been experimenting with painting on the insignias and other symbols instead of using the decals. And especially for this kit since the decals are very old and I feel like they would break easily. This was an easy kit to make masks for since it's pretty much all circles. For any lettering or too complicated symbol, I will use the decals.
Here is the finished camo. Since this was my first time brush painting any camo, I was worried it was going to look bad but I am satisfied with the results. However, I redid the right wing camo because I originally painted it too big compared to the left wing. So I resprayed the gray and repainted the camo.
The roundels are painted on along with the tail rudder symbol. I used Tamiya flat red and Mr primer white. I still need to paint on the white fuselage band and the front wing yellow identification markings.
