1/72 Trumpeter J-10 Chinese 

"New Fighter"

--------------------

 

This is my latest aircraft model, the 1/72 J-10 Chinese New Fighter from Trumpeter.

The kits is not very detailed.....decals in the cockpit etc...so this is built OOB and I did not use any conversion sets or photo etch parts.

For painting I used the pictures on this site http://www.sinodefence.com

For painting I used  Gunze Mr. Color & Humbrol enamel to wash and a pencil to touch up the panel lines.  Because China is still testing this new fighter, I did not apply much dirt on it, but I did do more on the nozzle.  I used silver and black for the surface detail, panel lines and rivets.  I also used blue & yellow ink for surface cover on the silver color and a drop of orange ink for touch up.
