Absolutely! These freehand SEA camo schemes are killin' me!

Can't wait to see the Hog in person.

Looks great, Bill!  The use of  loose masks are a technique I think the club would love to learn more about.

I have been making headway on this model and got it painted up in the three tone Euro Scheme. I used Model Master acrylic paints. I put down a base of light green to check seems. Then I put down the gray. Then I masked the gray and put down a coat of the light green. Then I masked again. Then I put down a coat of the dark green. Both coats of green were put down straight from the bottle initially then cut with some white to give a better contrast between the greens. I am going to let it dry overnight and then clean it up tommorow with some post shading and smoothing. I will bring it Sunday to the meeting. Hopefully by mid April the Hawg will be done. The F-16 was a test piece for the colors. I found once I cut the light green with some white I got a better contrast between the demarcation lines on the scheme.
