This one is back on the bench . With the P38 being olive drab good time to get this done as well . Just the canopy needs masking , rest is paint and the finish line .

Okay , so it ended up taking me 5 days to finish the masking and get the interior Green sprayed . I will let this dry for a fews before primer is applied . Don't want any paint cracks forming later . Will be using Tamiya for this , just not sure if will use their lacquer line or stay with their acrylics .

Main camo colours are now sprayed , I do have a bit of over spray to touch up with grey , An easy fix . For the underside I did the base camo using Tamiya neutral grey . followed by pershading of a slightly darker grey with an over spray of thinned Tamiya neutral grey slowing building up the layers . Top side was per-shaded using Mr.Hobby OD shadow ( very dark OD ) followed by OD #2 . This will get highlighted using OD highlight #1 .

Nice tonal variations in the OD. The wheel wells look sufficiently busy and just awesome.
I'm sure the highlights will add to the illusion of reality.

Looks like every thing dried nicely over night so I sprayed the white band on the nose and since the spinner was feeling all so alone , it get dressed in white as well . Prop blades are set for clear coating and decaling . Tail planes aren't glued yet , just place so they didn't feel left out of the photo opp ! Few spots to touch up and some detail painting and then it's off to clear coat for the decals .
