In for one, in for the other. I have decided to see if black-basing has any merit as a technique. The Thunderflash is a sleek enough aircraft and there will be some variations of the metal finish needed. Time to see if this vaunted paint technique actually does anything.
That’s a smooth black but I’m not sure if I grabbed gloss or a cowling colour in the Mr. Color range. It’s smooth enough to show any further flaws that need smoothing. And then it will be the first of the Mr. Color super-metallics to go on.
Good old stick-up-the-bum technology for holding the model. Those wing fences look properly Buck Rogerish, don’t they?
