RE: BVM Electra Build
Thanks everybody.
The painting is complete. The colors are the same as what was used on the F-16. Beings this is not a scale airframe, I took the liberty to create a fictious Marine Corps Adversary scheme. I made paint mask for the stars and bars, service name, and squadron codes and pianted with flat black. I will add the rest of the decals after they arrive from Pro-Mark. The cockpit and canopy have not been glue in yet. Once the canopy is glued in, it will sit tighter than it does in the photos. Next step is to start the weathering process and the first step is to rub down the paint with steel wool. This will start to give the paint a worn look and it will also start to bring out some of the details such as the rivets and inspection covers.
