All decals are applied on kit and now is the time to test washes I get for review :)

After small wash panels and access doors become more prominent. Now go with flat clear and then will go with final leaks and dirt.

Excellent machine, No.1!

I really think the faded paint effect works well on this one. It looks like the Pacific sun has been beating down on the airplane for some time!

I am glad you like effect, I try to make just a bit fade out as well paint could fade out much in this area ;)
