Ki61 of 18th Sentai
« on: September 01, 2016, 03:43:31 AM »
Greetings folks, I am gradually getting to the end of this rather epic journey. Firstly, when I picked the skin, I incorrectly labelled it as from the 17th Sentai, just now I realised my error. I hope it hasn't screwed anyone up. As such there are a few adjustments to be made, such as add number 18 to the gear covers, but all in all I think its ready.
Any suggestions?

That looks very good FTJR!

Have you added a faint shadow along the base of the ailerons?   I think I see them along the elevator hinges.

Great skin FTJR, the change of shade on the red is an improvement, it was a bit over-faded before.

Liked the weathering of the red before you added a coat of fresh 'red' paint. it matched the overall weathering.

Thanks guys,

Oboe, yes the shadow is there, just faintly.
Bustr, I tend to agree, and will adjust it a bit more in line.

Cheers

1st set of shots, the red appears "bleached".

2nd set of shots, like bustr said, too "fresh".

Maybe a mix of the two? :)
