wdedig Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Used Revel of Germany Aqua Color paints for first time on a He-111P from Hasagawa. Much less contrast than my usage of Testors RLM 71 and Gunze RLM 70. Compare completed Stuka to just painted Heinkel will post as progress allows Cheers Bill :smiley14: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mquan Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I like the closer contrast of Revell colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghodges Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) The difference seems to be between the lighter green. The darker greens look very close to each other. I've had problems with not enough contrast between those two greens, and prefer the extra contrast on the Stuka, even if it may be a bit less "accurate". I'm sure the 111 will look great once you get it finished, and it will be interesting to compare them again after the weathering and final finishes are in place!

Ron Bell Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I wouldn't comment on the contrast until all the gloss/flat coats are the same. It's surprising how those can change the intensity of the colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewahl Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Hi, Bill, This is a great Father's Day gift, even if you did give it to yourself. I wish I could post a photo of anything I finished today. The model looks outstanding! Your original post compared the paint finishes on the Stuka vs. the Heinkel. Could you give us a photo of both models in the same frame so we can see how the final finishes contrast? Thanks. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
