Nathan Dempsey
Nice build there!

Leszek Cader
Many thanks Nathan 🙂

Alec K
Well done 👍

Leszek Cader
Thank you Alec.

Neuling
Very subtle paintwork and weathering!

Leszek Cader
Much appreciation Neuling - that I guess was my goal. For the first time I have used salt weathering and I think I am pretty happy with the results.

Joe Bakaitis
This is a beautiful paint job. Can I ask you what colors you used for the metal parts of the body?

Greg Baker
Beautiful!

Björn Leichsenring
Nice white sheme.

Leszek Cader
@Björn & Greg thanks lads, much appreciation for you kind words. @ Joe - in some sources I have read that this bird was painted grey FS 36622 on metal parts which to my eyes Tamiya XF 12 was most similar. Then I weathered it with salt technique using Tamiya Smoke, that's my favorite way to start weathhering, discovered recently, love it. Glad that you like it.

Rui S
Very nicelly done indeed 👍

Leszek Cader
That's nice Rui. 🙂

Spanjaard
very nice job!

Leszek Cader
Thanks Spanjaard. That's my first winter camo bird, and I'm pretty happy with the results. Glad that you like it.

Bernhard Schrock
Bardzo ładna robota! Especially the green overpainted areas.

Stefan Schacht
very nice 👍

Leszek Cader
@ Bernhard - nice to see some Polish wording - dziękuję 🙂. Perhaps due to uncorect white balance it may look like green but it's rather grey, to be precise XF12 Grey J.N. Glad that you like it.
@ Stefan - many thanks.

Łukasz Gliński
50 shades of white - fanstastic result 👍

Leszek Cader
Whiter shade of pale 🙂 - thanks Łukasz
