Start with decals, it goes slow, I am a bit tired but feel so relaxed while doing this.

Just port side remained to complete but it is night now and no good light for this detail work so I leave it for tomorrow.

Post by: No.1 on February 01, 2015, 01:48:01 PM

Final decal work include placing them on surface and mounting surface on kit. Now I will let it dry for some time and then spray flat coat. Final work will be wheels mounting.

I am afraid that I see reaction between Pebeo varnish and traces of the decal setting solution. You see pale spots around the decals and only there? It look like I need better after decal application wash with water to clean surface. Now I am looking for solution to clear this somehow.

Title: Re: Su-35S Hasegawa 1/72
Post by: draken35 on February 02, 2015, 09:39:31 PM

You can use the same solution I use when I have silvering with decals: slowly apply pastel powder on the "damaged" surface...
I do that with my Spitfire MK II and that was successful

Title: Re: Su-35S Hasegawa 1/72
Post by: No.1 on February 02, 2015, 10:40:28 PM

What color of pastel?

Title: Re: Su-35S Hasegawa 1/72
Post by: No.1 on February 04, 2015, 03:36:10 PM

When I mask some decals I have seen that this spots are actually bulbs  :-danger Paint surface is clear but both coat of varnish are damaged. Somehow I have end this correction process and tomorrow I will go to final works and this will be finally ended. Too long time take this build...  :-kr  :-wall

Title: Re: Su-35S Hasegawa 1/72
Post by: draken35 on February 04, 2015, 06:18:39 PM

For pastels, I always use a colour a little bit lighter than the one used to paint the kit. You can use Tamiya pastels, or MiG pigments, or pastels bought from art shops (kind of chalks that you have to reduce in powder).

If the problem is due to air bubble under the decal, you can try this: to make little holes with a needle in the bubble, then to use MicroSol. Not 100% guaranteed, but gives good results many times...

I know second method, even Future can be used, work better.

Every time I use Aeromaster decals there seems to be silvering, but it is the clear decal material that silvers.
