Holger Kranich
Hey Augie, what markings du you want to apply?

Augie Auteur
Hey Holger, I'm kinda torn at the moment.. its either going to be russian or i may look through wings.ru an see if any catch my eye

Holger Kranich
Yeah, there are so many wonderful markingsand camo´s for this babe, available!

Augie Auteur
Aint that the truth...do have a soft spot for the Russian markings tho...

Holger Kranich
I´m gonna build one in the future though, but then in a bigger scale. I´d like to make it in 1:35 for "small" dio🙂

Augie Auteur
LOL Holger... thats the first time i have ever seem 1:35 and "small" in the same sentence... I used to have a 1:35 UH-60A and that was big enough.. I have a 1:35 Super Frelon which I need more space for before I even contemplate it..

Holger Kranich
A Frelon in this scale is really a big best! You need to move in a hall to build that. And you need paint...A lot of paint!🙂

Augie Auteur

Holger Kranich
Augie, looks great, so far! Really convincing!!!

Good morning Augie - how do you paint your models - with an airbrush or only with brushes?

Augie Auteur
Hi Mike, I'm a brush girl.. I'e tried airbrushes but never had good experience with them

Mike Kryza
Respect - think you're working with enamels - these colors are good for brushes... the first layers on your Mil are looking very nice.

Augie Auteur
Good eyes mike, used humbrol emamels... The light green is a very old pot.... No. 93 the weathering will be tamia pastles and washes
