The other half has broken the laptop, so I'm having to improvise with my phone, which means there may be some sellpng mistks. Anyway, for no particularly logical reason, I decided to start painting the 1960's Soviet aircraft for my Target Locked On: Flashpoint Xinjiang project yesterday. I will post some photos once I work out how to do it (which I have, as you can see below)
I didn't get very far but a base coat of Foundry Metal does make a difference, with some blocking in with white over the canopies, intakes and other coloured bits to follow. I'm also painting the RAF aircraft for Desert Spitfires at the same time but haven't started on those just yet, as I'll be using a slightly different approach, using an ink wash rather than lining.

I feel your pain, trying to blog with a phone, and look forward to seeing the Soviets.
ReplyDeleteTurns out it was the power lead...mashed up pin. It's working now so all systems are go (until the teenager wants his power lead back that is)
