Beautiful build. Was that a night fighter camouflage?

I painted the wings and fuselage separately because of the distinctive camouflage and the need to close access to the parts. I went from a sheet diagram cripples the same company part number 30014 in painting Jasta 37, pilot Karl Haustein. I thought painting small, black spots will be a nightmare, however, turned out to be a quick and easy task. When the painted "srebrzanką 'wings and fuselage dried paint, stain began to black. I took a pretty hard, firm, flat brush, graceful movement of the tip dipped in black, then wipe the excess paper. Holding it in his right hand, piled up, drew his left index finger, and I played them, spraying paint on the model.

In the end I made a propeller. Of course, it should be made of wood, and in the last stage of rozwarstwiło grinding. I did a painted plastic, experimenting a little with the colors. Color propeller dark: light primer H93 + H33 and H60 mixture.

color propeller bright: dark primer H62 + H93. Then gently smoke and transparent orange.
