PAINTING HAS BEGUN

Over the last few days I've been experimenting with various paints and colours. It's been a devil of a job finding the correct shade of blue/grey, so I've had to just choose the best of what's available to me. In the end, I went for Tamiya's XF-23 Light Blue, which is an acrylic. For the bottom of the hull, I chose Humbrol's 100 Red Brown which I applied using a brush.

This morning I went over to Machine-Mart and bought a quick-release coupler and adapter to allow me to attach my airbrush to the new compressor. I've never airbrushed before, but I'll be using it to paint the rest of the hull.



Wish me luck! LOL
