This is a really great und clean build. Not my scale, but I love it. I admire especially the fantastic clear coat without an additional sanding and polishing. I never got such a smooth surface only by airbrushing. Do You think the Meng airbrush, you used, is the key? With my evolution airbrush I always got a light orange peel, that needed a further sanding and polishing.

Good evening,

Thank you so much for the kind comments!
@VR2: I’m honored :oops: Watching your unbelievable build let me speechless and feel we don’t play in the same league!
@ferrarissimus: The 0.3 flat pattern is a really, really good airbrush! I love it... as my other flat pattern airbrushes like the Sparmax and my beloved HP-TH, both 0.5 nozzle.
I think the flat pattern allow a great result easily due to the fact that the spray is more concentrated and that there is less overspray in the spray area. It’s easier to “pull” the coat.
I hate to polish and polishing needs heavier coats at the expense of surface details and thin engraved lines and panels...

Thanks a lot once again to all of you Mates :wink:

Nice work! I have the MFH 1/12 kit that I will get to some day. By the way, one of your photos is not showing up because there are brackets ][ missing in the img line near the end. Nice photos, I want to see the missing one, too :-)
