Over on Hyperscale a gentleman by the name of Paul Coudeyette regularly posts pics of his latest creations. Now most are jets (suppress your gasps please) but his finishes are simply stunning AND they are brush painted. Truely worth a look.

I can't airbrush as well as he can hand paint.

Steve,
I checked out Paul's work the other day after the head up from you. WOW that one beautifully done bit of painting alright. I'm truly amazed the this one was brush painted and absolutely flawless. Tip of the hat to Mr.Coudeyette on an Outstanding job well done.

Sometime an actual step by step by him would be interesting. There must be a lot of polishing to get those finishes.

Steve,
A step by step tutorial would be outstanding my friend. I agree there must be a lot of polishing involved. I'd love to know how the get a flawless NMF with a brush. I wonder if Paul polishes the finish with aluminum power.

If I'm not mistaken, and I stand to be corrected, but I believe that he uses Rub n Buff and polishes it vigorously with his fingertip, rubbing until he gets heat built up.

Chris,
You may well be right my old friend. But still no matter it's the best NMF I've seen however Paul does it. NMF is by far the the must difficult to accomplish of all the different finishing techniques .

The NMF is only the half of it with the rest of the hand painting
