Gary KitchenHi. I'm by no means an expert at this, but you might want to use some masking fluid on the camo in random patterns and then spraying around it all in blue? I'm sure someone more experienced than me can advise.

Łukasz GlińskiI studied the mottling topic lately quite deep and ended up with a new airbrush 😉
However this is not the only way - you can either mask it with some blutack (fluid won't give you soft edges)
or use some PE templates available here and there (haven't tested them, but mounting them with blutack few mm above the surface should give you soft edges too).
Hope this helps.
Still the few spots you've got look good, I hope to get similar stuff on my Würger 👍

★ Starfish ★Thanks guys. I hope the mottling will become better with some more practice. Also I think I should have thinned the paint at lot more for that...

Guillaume BlanchetNice model! I'm always impress by the amount of details people put in 1:72 scale. Great video too.
For mottling I find that adding a lot of thinner tend to make plashing spot. I usually putt the regular amount of thinner. While painting, I purge the dried paint my nozzle on a sheet of paper first allowing a lot of paint in the mix and then apply the mottling spot with a lesser paint to air ratio. I found than high PSI (30) work better for me than lower (10PSI).
