A Zero for Fathers Day
Posted: Tue May 31, 2016 9:03 pm
A week ago I stopped all other projects and pulled out an old Green BBi Zero and went to work on it for my dad to give him for fathers day. It is actually very easy, first paint a grey net like camo over the top then go back over it with Tamiya IJN dark green on the spots so it appears that the Green is painted onto the grey. 
Then some flat aluminum and a steady hand makes quick work of the chipping and prop. The exhaust is done with a fat rust brown shade followed by a thinner smoky black followed by a thin light grey. Then over the whole thing is my own Magic Grime weathering compound that I sell on eBay. I will do a separate post about how to use it someday I have time. Its very easy, just scrub it on and wipe off in the direction of gravity for armor of airflow for aircraft.
Happy Fathers Day!
