OK, now the paint job, with a first coat of grey matching the reference given by Twobobs, still in the Testors range.
As usual, I lightened my paint
directly, so I have all my panels lightened.
Next I'll covered the whole plane with tape to draw directly on it the special pattern of the green camo.
After carefully cutting the pattern, I painted it in green, giving the same treatment to lightening of the paint.
The weathering process was done with Tamiya smoke in each of the panel lines...
And then a coat of "Future" just before decaling.
The decals went on very easily and need no comments, everybody knows the quality of the Twobobs decals now! Another coat of "Future" seal the job, so I'm sure I didn't have troubles with "silvering".
Then I applied a mix of gloss / matt coat on the entire model. I added all the parts like gears / exhaust / pods and canopy at this time in the build process. Well, this is a very interesting Falcon, an easy model to build which gives a great result at the modeling meeting!! Thanks Twobobs for releasing such great scheme! Hope you enjoy it!
