Tricky question, once you posted in a topic, you'll be notified once anybody else wrote anything. But unfortunately not in case of new pics 🙁

Very neat, is mottling paintbrushed or sprayed? 👍

Very nice. Congrats!

The painting of the bottom of fuselage is done with a stencil?

The fuselage mottling was done with a paintbrush and paint thinned a little less than it would be to for airbrushing. I spread painting out over a few days to minimize developing a pattern so it stayed more random.

Wow, nice and huge bird. It looks absolutely amazing👍. Perfect job. I know how long it could be creating such a camo. But I've tried it on FW 189, this one is far away bigger.

Perfect ! I enjoy seeing such seldom built planes. But when the result is such it becomes a treat.
