 Kit: Italeri 1/72

Decal : VFA Productions RMAF Strike Aircraft

Major Color : Anchor Spray Can

Detail Painting: Gunze Aquous range

Gloss Coat: Anchor clear

Flat Coat: Gunze Flat

Weathering: pencil+liquid eyeliner+powder eyeliner

 

This is my latest TUDM kit-an OOB way. The Italeri kit was a really nice little kit. No major problems occurred during assembly and there is little use of putty.  Just be careful while attaching the wing fences, please refer the VFA Productions decal instruction for the correct placement. 

 

 Painting was done by anchor spray can & for small parts, cockpit, ejection seats & landing gears, I use  gunze aquos color range.

I’m running out of Gunze gloss coat while preparing this model for decaling, so I try the industrial gloss coat & it’s work as same as gunze! Next time, I will use this industrial gloss coat since it much-much cheaper than gunze & has a same effect. VFA decals adhere to the model without silvering & I finished it off with a coat of gunze flat finish. 

 

As usual, I weathered the model using the combination of pencil, liquid eyeliner & powder eyeliner.
