Cockpit is finished and the plane has been assembled and prepared for the paint. I hope I have done enough sanding and polishing to prepare for the NMF... I'm testing Mr.Color's super metallic SM08 for this plane, let's see how it goes😉.

Thanks mates! 🙂
It's been a while since the last update, so here are a few pictures of what has happened since then.

Thanks James! 🙂
I used Mr.Color SM08 Plate Silver Next, as I've used the SM01 several times earlier and been very happy with the result. Unfortunately it seems that SM08 is another formula and needs a clear cote to protect it, which dulls down the metal shine. I'm still happy with the final result, but unfortunately it isn't the holy grail I was hoping for😉.

Thanks Mates! 🙂
@James, yes I also struggle with NMF. Probably because I try to reach a higher standard with them than I do with other finishes..

Thank you Sören! 🙂
It is finished. I chose not to do any weathering on the plane as the inspiration for it was a plane I saw at an airshow last summer.
