Eduard/SBS HA-112 K-1L Conversion: Part 3, painting and weathering

Welcome to the final part of the Tripala conversion, this one is all about the painting and weathering and there's some hi-res photos of the finished project at the end. I hope you've enjoyed this project as much as I have.

Amazing results, Jamie! Thanks for making this series of videos on the HA-112 K-1L conversion.

Thanks mate

I do much prefer the nose on this - and thus the whole AC appearance - of this over the Buchon. I also like the barrack grey colour. Loved this build!

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Me too mate, glad you liked it

[@SMAZVidoes]

Great work and a great save and repair job on the rounded.

Thanks mate

That color really does suit this aircraft. The nose almost looks like a Macchi. Liked the weathering on it and pleased you showed how you did it. As for the paint lifting with mask removal, perhaps wait longer between colors to let it bond better before putting the mask on?

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

It does look nice, I agree about the drying time, I am impatient!

[@TheEdmond30]

Started the arma Airacobra. it is worth the wait.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

I'm looking forward to it

[@NeilMicklethwaite1812]

Superb result Jamie - not too over weathered😊 - great to see the silhouette earning its keep - what was the transparent product? Also you seem to apply very few coats of “main” paint - how many usually?

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks Neil. The transparent product? If it's the vinyl, that's Oramask 810. I usually do a thin primer, then a single layer of camouflage paint, sometimes a gloss varnish but normally always a final varnish coat.

[@NeilMicklethwaite1812]

@@thescalemodellingcafe haven’t tried the Oramask yet (bought some) just been using the MIG AMMO Sheets. As for the paint that seems to be “Get it right first time” which is where I am going wrong😄 thanks!

[@ThePlasticModeler]

Just wondering, how do you know which fonts to use for the registration numbers or other text?

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

I scanned the decal sheet mate
