Most of my posts on this blog have been about 1/35 armour, but I am also a voracious builder of 1/32 fighter planes from the Second World War. Yet I've hardly spoken about them. Time to fix that. My latest video tutorial shows you how to mask and paint the round red markings (hinomaru) on WW2 Japanese planes.
Seriously, once you have painted your own hinomaru, you will never use decals again. It's so easy, and the weathered end result is so, so much better than any decal.
Seriously, how good does that look? Faded, weathered. No decal can do that. |
Don't believe me? Check out the video below to see how easy and effective it is.
I've included an Amazon link below so you can purchase the one tool required. It's 5 bucks, and you can use it for Japanese markings, RAF roundels, whatever. Bargain.
Cheers,
Dave
