RE: top flite p-51 giant scale build
Paul, Here are some pictures of what I mean.
1) Fuselage painted with Model master, enamel aluminum. Notice how grey it looks.
2) Fuselage painted with Model master, enamel chrome silver, prior to steel wool.
3) Fuselage painted with Model master, enamel chrome silver, with steel wool action. Notice the sheen, and variations in color.
4) Fuselage tail area, Chrome Silver on all but the rudder, rudder painted with Model master, enamel aluminum. Notice the difference in color and sheen. Much better in real life versus pictures.
