This
is the profipack from Eduard, I build it straight from the box, I wanted to make
something different, so this is my Kittyhawk from RNZAF in other words Royal
New-Zeeland Air Force, there are photo etch and resin parts for the cockpit but
they are not so easy to make them fit in the fuselage, with a lot of passion and
determination it is possible. The fuselage do not fit at the wings, this step needs a lot
of putty, but for the rest the kit is fine.

The
colors that I chose for this plane are from Humbrol, olivegreen and white,
and neutral grey from Hobby Color. The decals are very good but I masked the white
stripes with Tamiya tape and airbrushed them, the result is good as you can
see. Before I placed the other decals, I gave it a clear coat, the decals are set with
set and sol from Microscale after that again a clear coat to protect the decals,
now its time to do the weathering
The
weathering is done white watercolours, this is easy to set and to take it away,
this is repeated till I was satisfied, this is the result of the
watercolours. After the weathering I give the plane matt clear cote to protect
the watercolours, now its time to paint the little details with a brush and then
its time to get the pastel
colors out of the box to finish the plane.
Have
fun with the photos
Greetings,
Phil
