1/48 F-22 Raptor Hasegawa

[jzsn]

Newest build, chose Hasegawa over Academy for much better quality.

Very smooth and sturdy build thanks to Hasegawa. The three main colors are light gull grey, dark gull grey and duck egg blue on the edges from Testors new line of acrylic paints.

Starting a new project next week!!

I haven't seen too many of these built up, so thumbs up on that. Secondly, the finish itself is great!

From what I can see that lhe build is looking great. Some of the images are not loading, but I wouldn't be suprised if it isn't an issue on my end. Quick question, any issues with masking to accompish the the camo pattern for the plane?

Nicely done. I was wondering, midway down the update you have this picture;

Is this a pre-shade, or panel lines? And what technique are you using, doesn't look airbrushed...
Anyways great work.

The thick line was Testors black paint marker, and thin lines are Sharpie Ultra fine permanent marker.

To be honest, they didn't turn out that great after I applied a 2nd layer of light ghost gray as they were barely noticeable. After several build i kinda agree with people saying pre-shading is over rated.

I ended up applying layers of gloss, then used a fine brush dip super diluted 1:10 black acrylic paint in all panel lines, wipe extra off with cue tips. The weathering, I used Tamiya weathering master set B
