Ferenc SarkaNice job. The hasegawa's prowler will be my next projekt. I would like to ask, what kind/brand of white colour did you used? I had many problems with whites. Thanks in advance.

RobertHi Ferenc, I started by priming everything Mr. Finishing Surfacer 1500 Gray. I used Vallejo Surface Primer 73.600 for the white parts of the plane (as usually) and Vallejo Model Air 71.277 Dark Gull Gray upper surfaces. I mix the paint externally in a ratio 5/3 (5 parts paint - 3 parts thinner). I hope that helps...
