Nice job Stu. It brings the aircraft to live a lot more.

[@HobbyKingOfficial]

Thanks Jacen.

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

Great video, love that silver prop in the evening light 👍

[@HobbyKingOfficial]

I've got to agree with you there, didn't even think of how it would look when spinning, rather pleased with the effect ;)

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

@@HobbyKingOfficial it looks great I have been thinking about maybe trying some chrome paint for the same effect, but the silver might be better.

Very nice Stuart. Great effect. I hope Heidi is paying attention...lol.

[@HobbyKingOfficial]

Awesome weathering Stuart!! Great tips as always. All of these warbirds look even better sitting on the Flight-line or in the hanger with just a little work. Thanks for sharing 👊🏼👊🏼

Really nice, thanks for the video. You mentioned that you did a similar video for a silver warbird? I have not been able to find it. Can you point me that way, please?

Can you explain for us Yanks what you mean by 'varnish'? What we think of as varnish is a wood treatment and I've not heard of it used on foam planes here in the USA.

[@stuartwarnerc]

Hello, I think you guys in the states might refer to it as a ‘lacquer’? Basically a clear protective coat.
