Hi guys!
This
is my 1/72 scale C-47 in the colours of Armada Argentina 'Grupo Naval
Antartico' (Argentinaīs Navy Antartic Naval Group) This plane flown to
the south pole in 1960.
The model is
build O.O.B., I wanted to focus on the paint scheme. I used an aftermarket set
made by Aerocalcas.
The metallic
paint is 'mitrhil silver' made by Citadel, I use it for the first time
with another kit, because I run out of Alclad II, and Iīm very happy with
this stuff. Itīs an acrylic, great shine, takes very well the masking
tape, and itīs cheap!!!
Once the paint
was dry, I masked and painted all the other colours, this was an exhausting task,
but it paid off in the end!
The last steps
involved appling the excellent decals.
Iīm very
happy with this model, and itīs a fine addition to my collection of
Argentinian aircraft.
Best regards
and happy modeling
Jeremias
