Hasegawa 1:48 RF-4 Phantom II

The RF-4 has received a NMF and a PITT Pen wash along with some anti glare areas using flat black. The base is Talon acrylic NMF which was given a high sheen using some Polishing Powders (50/50 of Aluminum & Steel mixed together). Once that was applied and buffed it was allowed to cure for a few days while I did other tasks.

Using some masking tape I selected panels and in certain places entire sections to be give applications of different shades of aluminum which were tinted using other base colors. Some of the areas were Talon while others were SnJ Spray Metal.  Once those had dried I started to us a PITT Pen to apply the wash to highlight the panels and panel lines. See my video on how to do this.

Once satisfied with the detailing achieved by the PITT Pens I gave the entire model a seal coat using SnJ Spray Metal Clear Metal. The next step is to start applying the other colors for the scheme, decals and finish the other areas not yet complete such as the cockpit. Stay Tuned.
