David HSo, what's I've discovered over the past few months is that for a good gloss finish I use future, BUT it can be inconsistent. So after a 24hr cure I gently wipe it over with white spirit , a good coat, and leave it to dry. The spirit dissolves the top layer of future which resettles into a high gloss.

David HTbh I discovered it when panel lining with black enamel wash. The future was always shinier and smoother after I'd removed the excess wash using white spirit and a tissue !! So I tried it and found it improved the gloss

Andrew HortonThis build made me want to look up Israeli ops in the phantom. I heard they had several aces, but sadly, don't know any of the accounts yet.

David HJust want to Thank you to you guys for the likes and kind words, it's my first time on a public forum showing my (lack of) Modelling skills and is bit of a milestone.
Looking forward to learning and improving from you all.

David HI don't normally go in for heavy weathering just a light bit of streaking, or exhaust. TBH this old testers kit scrubbed up better than I expected, still wouldn't buy another tho 😠 too many shortcomings where it looks like the makers just couldn't be bothered.

David HThanks Konrad, the green could have been a bit "greener" it looks a bit too olive to my eye, but hey, next time !!

James CThis is an impressive looking Phantom, and being an Italeri kit I can appreciate all the effort that has gone into this build 😉👍
