If you use some Tamiya paint retarder with the Tamiya paint it will splatter less and you'll have less dry tip on your airbrush. That will make your green camo work less stressful and your paint will flow much better.

I always forget about that product, I need to go pick some up and give it a try. Thanks

[@AirbrusherStudio]

actually you just need to thin your black a little more,. 2-3 layer then 1 wet layer, no need to polish my friend, thinned your paint more, it will work easier. overall great work my friend. You can watch my zero video if you want to see what ii have done

[@ScaleModelAssassin]

Appreciate the tip,. I'll play around the the mixing ratio and test it out

[@bobdyer422]

Nice job on the Hein. I wouldn't worry at all about getting flat coat on the aluminum, the way most were sandblasted the finish was very dull anywho. Congrats!

[@ScaleModelAssassin]

Thanks 👍 I agree, too shiny would look a bit off

[@paulhargreaves1497]

Great job.......harder than Italian smoke I think, given it's on NMF. Nice tip on where to sand the tyre flats.

[@ScaleModelAssassin]

Thanks and glad you picked up something useful!

[@MrMarcocamp]

I tried to see myself doing the same... just thinking before starting to make the green doodles 'here I'm destroying the good job done so far' :)

[@ScaleModelAssassin]

That's definitely the point of no return.

Very good clean build, great job! Do note though, those drop tanks where made from wood mid too late war. I recognized it by the shape. Have fun!
