Normaly I do the wood effects with oil paints. This time I deceided to go an other way. MAin reason was that I do not want the wait for the drying time which is usualy neccessary for oil paints.

In the first step, I enhanced the preshading by the use of blank paint along the panel lines.



In the second step, I softened the black and enhanced the shading by the use of dark brown.



The last step of the preshading is used to further soften the transistions between the paints und to give the surface a more patchy appearance. This time a mid brown was used



This is now the base for coming pale layers of paints which hopefully will blend all layers together and will leave a pale but subtle patch surface

Yes, I am also awaiting the results! Looks great so far. Is that Parafilm masking on the tail?

Thank you, gentlemen.

Yes Steve, that's parafilm. Regarding the next steps, I will use a similar technic you used on your Allbatros.

In the next step I sprayed thin layers of Gunze "Sail" over the whole fuselage until the preshading vanished and only left some darker subtle shadows under the sail color



In a second step, I additionally sprayed a mixture of 50/50 flesh/white to further brighten up the fuselage in some areas.
(This time, as variety, I will show the underside

I enhanced several panels/areas by spraying a cloudy layer of mid brown.

In the step next to last, irregular patterns were painted on the fuselage, by using a damp brush which was loaded with pastels
