As I'm practicing the whole painting thing, I took an old project from the cupboard to try and paint on a smoother surface than the PKA.
It's a reversed Heinkel Salamander Volksjager (1/32 Revell), as part of a challenge to make a different plane out of a plane kit using most/all parts from the kit and little else, but it wasn't allowed to become the kit it was meant to be. Still following me? Here's a picture.


Which took some yellow to the face:

And the cockpit got some paints and decals

As I wanted a non-military racer, I added sponsor logos. I'm not too happy about it, not enough coherence, but the decal setting solution was so aggressive on some decals that they fused with the gloss layer...

Belly got some stickers too.

And for your information, it's a Fiat ^_^

Pilot is ready for paint, I think I'll make him red or another shade of yellow (darker)

When the decals are dry it's gloss varnish time, followed by oils.
Any tips are welcome, of course any other comment/criticism as well.
