How've you applied the Dunkelgelb Rboy?
Sprayed or brush? Almost looks like it's been dabbed on with a cottonbud? Or pigment powders?
I like it, but can't work it out.

Cheers,
Adam.

I used cheap(68 cents/ 2oz.) Wal-Mart "Plaid" brand acrylics, mixed the colors I needed and it's all 100% brush applied..... with my 30 year old Grummbacher brushes.

Next set of photos - 20mm gun has arrived and is under construction:

First model I've ever built with Photo-Etched parts .... what a major pain! But what detail!

Didn't get any feedback on my last set of pics, nontheless I shant let it bother me. Here is the next set of pics on the 'Blitz Build'.

flak38 receives it's first coat of paint; dunkelgrau.

Next the whole gun was painted in a "captured" British desert khaki, then finally the front shield was painted over in dunkelgelb,
