Back to the drawing board

I'm rather unhappy with my efforts at painting the Mustang's propellor spinner. So it's time to strip the paint and start again.



The yellow is grainy, and the red is dull. Plus the line between the two colours at the pointy end is a bit wonky unbalanced.

The other greenish piece is a test painted with acrylic paint for stripping as well.


I'm shooting a video showing the paint stripping process, because I know this is an area that many modellers have questions about.

Bit of a bummer to take a step backwards, but it's one of those things that if I don't fix it as I go, I know it will bother me every single time I look at the completed model. #fixthatshit

Cheers,

Dave
