Revell Spitfire Mk.V - 1/72 - Bare metal

[SteveS]

Hi all,

Before the detail-police mention it, yes this is a fictional scheme. It's built OOB with the kit decals, but this was an attempt to see how smooth a finish I could get with an aluminium rattle-can. The rattle-cans are Halford's own, a grey primer followed by an aluminium finish.

In other news, I still can't paint canopies very well, but I'm really pleased with the paint finish!

Nothing wrong with that Steve! Next you have to see if you can get some panel variations in there.

Then i will copy you!!!

Nout wrong there Steve. Secret to a NMF is to spray gloss coat first, then metal. But this looks great!
