Thank you Sall!!!
Orange (Games Colors) is sprayed now...

Next step: some panels will be lightened with the orange from Citadel Colors; other ones will be darkened with chocolate brown.

Thanks!

Yasterday I've begun the masking phase. No work today, I will continue tomorrow... If I don't come back too late from a formation stage at Brussels...

The masking phase was a long, time consuming one... Because I wished to do some colors effects, using the Citadel Color orange (lighter than the Game Colors one); darkened the Game Color orange on some other panels and finishing with a marron brown.

You can see the result. I'm a little bit disappointed because the difference between Citadel Colors and Game Colors oranges is visible only when your eyes are at 10 cm of the model (see photo nr16)... But I like very much the "gun panels" made with two drops of marron brown in the orange.

Now I will have to paint the pilots before to continue on the aircar...

Thank you mates!

Today I've made some correction in the paint and added black color. I've also painted the pilots... One of them has a moustache, as precised in the instruction sheet because in the film "the left pilot owns a moustache"!!!  :))

So, today it was:

A light weathering. I preferred to use a mix of "rust" and "Gun Metal" better to just alu: as the cloud city is on a gas planet, oxydation is probably more faster...  :)) :-danger :-danger :-danger

Then, Pébéo matt varnish.

Gun painting (gun metal) and smoke of the gunfire (Tamiya pastel)

And final assembly.

So, it's finished...
