undergoing some surgery 
 

Album image #2
that´s my first try doing this 
 

Album image #3
I think it is gonna work... hopefuly 
 

Album image #4
that´s it! let´s paint it! 
 

Album image #5
a little less boring with this elevons out of neutral ^_^ 
 

Album image #6
filling the wheel well with blue tac 
 

Album image #7
masks on 
 

Album image #8

Album image #9
starting the preshade 
 

Album image #10
that budged cheap chinese generic airbrush (copy of iwata) is horrible, can´t do fine lines without clog 
 

Album image #11
moving on, shading the wood panels 
 

Album image #12
looking interesting 
 

Album image #13
how this will look under the camo? 
 

Album image #14
lower surfaces, starting with overal light misty coat of lifecolor rlm 76 
 

Album image #15
keep going, I love the way Lifecolor allows you to do thin even semytransparent layers! 
 

Album image #16
little more... 
 

Album image #17
that´s it! 
 

Album image #18
I still can ssee the "wood work" underneath 
 

Album image #19
this is it for the lower surface 
 

Album image #20
masking the waves, never done before, let´s bite the bulled... :-/ 
 

Album image #21
looking funny isn´t it? 
 

Album image #22
time for the uper surface 
 

Album image #23
lifecolor RLM82 
 

Album image #24
starting the RLM81 also from lifecolor 
 

Album image #25
atempted camo by freehand, I need to tight up this separation, the airbrush I was working was terrible, I already trew it away in the garbage. 
 

Album image #26
the waves need a little correction, but is going to work! 
 

Album image #27
metal plates unmasked painted in Revell Aqua 90 "silver" 
 

Album image #28
should I paint a stripe over it? by the way, the cammo work now is more convincing but I think the RLM81, the dark green, covered too much the preshading, lessons to learn... 
 

Album image #29
Making up... chipping from revell aqua 90 "silver" aplied with a fine brush, and tamiya pigments 
 

Album image #30
tamiya pigments "weathering master" works very well! 
 

Album image #31
the pin wash was done using tamiya panel line accent, the easyest wash to use!  
 

Album image #32
close to my failed first atempt to return to the hobby, I already bought another "Flitzer" to do it properly now! the pitot on the Go 229 was done with medicine needles of different sises, one inside the other, much stronger than the kit´s plastic 
 

Album image #33
fish eye! kkkkk ^_^ after that I tryed to glue the canopy and messed up, I had undergone some surgery to correct the problem, I will shoot the final pics of the result soon

Album image #41
tamiya pigments for the exhaust 
 

Album image #42
I hope that people don´t feel offended by the swastica in the plane, I just like historicaly accurate planes, and even wen it is just "what if" , it all adds to the fear factor of the plane in my opinion 
 

Album image #43

Album image #44

Album image #45
I like the freehand camo scheme, will be atempting more in the future

thanks all for the comments, I realy enjoyed doing this one, was my first time cutting airelons! and the camo scheme freehanded was super fun to make, I love airbrush! I need to buy another one 🙂

Gone through the whole album now and the wood effect under the main paint scheme is amazing.

i know the feeling Cesar, i just "retired" my cheap copy of iwata (served me the best it could ages ago, and again when i returned to modelling) but i am happy to get a much better one now 🙂 it can make a huge difference!
