Very sharp SE5a Esteban!  Your wing rib shading is very subtle and effective.  Well done!  How did you achieve that?

Regards,

Bob

I first painted every single rib the actual colour, CDL for the under surfaces and Tamiya Khaki Green for the upper surfaces.  I used Tamiya tape to cover all the ribs and gave the surfaces a Flat Black coat.  Removed the tape and painted with light coats the actual colours CDL and Khaki Green.  This gave the surfaces a dirty fade look around the ribs.

Welcome, Esteban, to this forum. Your SE5a is very nice, as the others, I like very much the subtle rib shading. Looking forward to see more your builds.
