German Waffen SS Unteroffizier

Once again, I have put away some of the current projects and enjoyed some time around painting figures. This time, I have get this resin figure from a friend of mine and this is a really great figure for resuming my figure painting journey.

The same set of paints have been used for a few good years. I actually found some of them are dry out and requirement replacements....


There are 2 optional heads to fit in. And I think I would need to repaint a couple of time for each of them anyway. Just like a practise, everytime I resumed painting figures, the first couple of head seems to be a mess.....LOL.

Kawasaki T-4 Blue Impulse 2008 (7)

So I have another run for the stensils and I have a couple of quick clear coats, one gross and one matt, laid on it. And after all these, I am able to remove the mask on the canopy.



I have hand-painted the darker lines on the wings to fit the blue shades.



The next thing to work on is the finer details inside the cockpit and then I will need to handle the landing gears.

Kawasaki T-4 Blue Impulse 2008 (6)

Just spend the evening having the color scheme painted. This is a custom mix of 2 blue colors. I didn't manage to get the Gunze #322 and #323 as stated in the instruction. But I think this color still match close enough to the decal anyway.



The next evening I have most of the decals applied. I need to leave the stensils for later time as I hardly able to focus from my eyes after consecutive evening audio meetings.


After some the decal applied, I found that the mask I have made on the wings are appearantly off the track. Perhaps I will have to hand paint the darkr shade of blue lines later on.



But afterall, I think the masking job is pretty close and I am still glad to have this progress going on so far.

Kawasaki T-4 Blue Impulse 2008 (5)

Finally, I have got some time after an exhausting biz trip and is now closer to normal life.... XD
The plane has been primed with a custome mix of grey as pre-shadow. Then the Gunze GX White has been used as highlight color.
