Tail End Charlie gets some more paint.

Hi lads , got around today to applying some "pseudo" modulation as I call it wink.gif

Using some of the previously made up SCC#15 Olive Drab mix I added some XF-60 Dark Yellow to lighten it and some XF-26 Deep Green.
This was thinned some more with the Mr.Hobby Lacquer Leveling Thinner and then airbrushed onto various prominent parts of the model.
I used some paper to help mask off some areas when focusing on a particular feature. One thing I am learning is that airbrushing requires constant practice and hopefully I am on the right path.

Some pix of the Firefly as is at the moment. Considering applying some further highlights to it. A sealing coat of Johnstons/Future will follow to help prep it for decal application and all the weathering effects, filter and oils happy.gif.

As always - open to suggestions and advice happy.gif
