Modelling RAF Tornado Gr1 - Desert Storm - "Painting Base Color"

Updates:

i was on a break last week, so; sorry to those that stop by and wanted to see the updates on my Tornado.

But yesterday i have a very productive day (although i did have an issue with my handpiece not working properly due to a clogged nozzle and uncontrollable air flow).

Finally the Tornado got the paint done already and below is the result.

 

I use Tamiya Dark Yellow (XF-60) mix with a few drops of Tamiya Flat Red (XF-7).

From my eyes and my reference, this looks like a close-enough match for the paint on the real aircraft.

So i'll settle to this color for now.

Noted that the inside of the airbrake is not yet painted, i'll get to it later tonight.

The same goes to the inside of the wheel bay (front and rear)

Also will masked the radome and paint it gloss black later on.

Another angle to see the paint job.

Stay tune for more updates.

and the pressure is on for the dateline for the event is < 1 month away.
