By the way, maybe someone will tell me, what colors are better to use when applying "oil points" with the color of the surface? I just never collected American aviation with such a color "for metal"

Looking great! Love the weathering you did. How did the decals work out for you? Mine just dissolved when they came into contact with water. 🙁

Album info

Сборка прошла быстро и просто. Как и все модели Тамии. Сборка из коробки, без дополнений, даже кабину фототравлением не доробатывал.
Модель "выходного дня". То есть, вот захотелось собрать что-нибудь быстро, просто и с удовольствием.

The assembly was quick and easy. Like all Tamiya models. Assembly out of the box, without additions, even the cabin phototracking did not work.
The "weekend" model. That is, I wanted to collect something quickly, simply and with pleasure.

1) Fine SurFace Primer (L)
2) XF-1 Flat Black + X-20A thinner (50\50)
3) XF-16 Flat Aluminum + X-22clear+ X-20A thinner (2\1\2)
Now I will highlight some areas
4) Selection of areas for clarification ( TAMIYA art87035)
5) XF-16 Flat Aluminum + X-22clear+ X-20A thinner + some XF-2 flat white
6) I did not like the result of the highlight. I, apparently, added a lot of white paint and the areas began to look unnatural.

I decided to try to blow out the highlight on X -11 (Chrome Silver) + X-22clear+ X-20A thinner.

If it does not work out -
