All these latest RAF ones aren't EMB 314s...they're Shorts....which makes them essentially 312s....and thus not fair dinkum...;)
 
ZF378 is done...so looks like I have six to upload...;)

295 is mostly done...just no real idea yet what's under the wings [apart from air]...;)

Edit...
Looks like the bottom is essentially blank....but the airbrake has a Union Jack .

And as for lots of paints....this one aircraft looks like it has at least 4 versions alone...;)

I probably need to move on from RAF paints...before I go insane....there's so many versions...;)

To be honest, I didn't have the model installed until you started to release your paints. I always considered it a bit too modern for me....... :biggrin-new:

Now I have a whole fleet of them, mainly in RAF colours and I really love them :encouragement:

Thanks,
Huub

 
Same here Huub. The Super Tincan has never done much for me but with Jafo's rash of RAF paints (albeit fictitious for the type).. I'm beginning to buckle:biggrin-new: The Gaffer at UKMIL is throwing one together too so its all good;)

Yes...I have the 'beta' ....and it's good, though the reason I am doing/can do all these paints for Tim's is I reworked [and thus got my head around] the paintkit so it's a bit like....dial it in and spit it out...;)

I particularly like Tim's paint 'templates' where essentially the whole aircraft is on the one image...means you can more easily keep track of what you're doing.

Hopefully a kit for the UKMIL 312-T1 will be comparatively user-friendly too...;)
 
Jafo, if you are going to move away from fictitious RAF Tucanos would you consider painting this model as a PZL-130 Orlik from the Polish Air Force?

The ones they use for there display team, I know its a completely different aircraft but I think it would look great.

Jason...it's not all that different....still a 2 seat turboprop 'trainer'....and not impossible to do...;)
 
I look forward to some WIP shots soon then hehe :encouragement:

I'm glad I didn't start my own paintkit for this model (99% I do my own paintkits btw) but you have done such a awesome job of all these Jafo, I fully salute you! :applause:
