Christian LehmannThank's mates.
@Christian Meyerhoff: Thanks for the offer but the intention is to present it like at one of the photos taken in the 1970's at Point Cook after it sas gaken out of the transportation boxes. The base is undef construction jet.

Christian LehmannThank's Jürgen and Erik.
This was the first time that I was really satisfied when I used Vallejo Air colors. In the past I always had the problem thatt they sooner or later closed the nozzle of the airbrush despite using Tamiya thinner and retarder. I now used Vallejos flow improver aditionally for the first time and was able to spray thin lines like they would be necessary to paint a meander camouflage.

Christian MeyerhoffHumbrol forever, forever Humbrol ! ( Sorry just an ugly comment from an ancient modeller 🙂 )

Christian LehmannNo problem Christian. I also use Humbrol as well as Revell and x-tra, Tamiya, Gunze and Vallejo

Wim van der LuijtLooking real good, I had the Same problems with the Vallejo paint, have yet to try the flow improver, but your findings are promising

Christian LehmannThank's Wim. I nearly scrapped these color when Stefan Natus gave me the hint to use Original Tamiya acrylics thinner and Tamiyas paint retarder. The brought some progress, but was not really satisfying. The final part was the flow improver. For this Kraftei I used a mixture 6 drops thinner+2 drops retardr+2 drops flow improver +2 drops paint using miy Gabert airbrush
