Sweet work their Jan

[norab]

love the Duck and your paints, I'm interested in any paint you care to turn out (The USAF used a few also)

[jankees]

working on the bare metal, I felt it was too light and smooth looking. This better?

[jankees]

Wow! They are beautiful Jankees. I very much want these textures for my collection. With all your work, you are shaming me to try and do more work on the Duck myself.

[jankees]

It's just a lovely model, Paul.
Don't know why it took me so long....

[jankees]

anybody interested in a private duck?

Jankees, since you have already created a great base to work from, here are three that are worthy of your talents in repainting!!!

[jankees]

OK then, work in progress:
how about the blue on this one, does that look OK to you guys?





and this one:

and this one:

IMO, 3-MS looks more silver on the real thing. If that Mt. Kyle represents the Murphy's War movie model, maybe a lot more weathering is in order..It also did not have the engine cowl. Which was included in the original Duck texture set.

[ejoiner]

Hey awesome! Two comments.

The blue on the RN version is more like this:



Also, the Marine duck in the pic above needs to be a brighter, more anodized metal finish. I would fade/blend the rivet and panel lines a bit more on the RN duck. Otherwise GREAT!!!

[dvj]

This paint has been done. It might even be in the SHO library.

[dvj]

This too....

[jankees]

see, being colorblind isn't always easy...I'll try the other blue. And yea, weathering, no worries, but before I got my teeth into it, I wanted to be sure about the blue. And rightly so it seems.

So I forget about the Marines paint, and no, I don't think Murphy's version without the cowl was part of the original package. I am talking here about the Duck by Paul Domingue of course, not the other one, which did have a version without the cowl.

Hmmmm, maybe I have both versions in my hanger? Checking.

ejoiner, I tried your blue, but that's far too light. Here's the texture:

see how the color is lighter that the blue of the fin flash?
If you watch the movie:

from 31:00, you'll see that the blue paint is in fact darker than the blue of the fin flash (which I am assuming has the right RAF colour), so I am trying for a darker blue, not a lighter...
Back to the drawing board...
