Another simple custom

Post by Jnewboy » Sun Aug 07, 2011 6:27 pm

Many of you saw my FW-D11 but you can get a similar look from an out of the box paint job. I got this about a week ago and now it looks great!

Image

I opened the cowl flaps, hollowed out the cannons, separated the pylon and the drop tank, added rub-on detail on the wings and dry brushed the prop, surface edges & the pilot "path"

Image

I weathered the whole thing and used touch up paint when necessary. Filled and painted the holes in the landing gear and painted the interior struts of the gear and wheel wells

Image

And of course airbrushed in the exhaust

Looks great.
The botom reminds me of a candy cane.
