Hand brushed Tamiya flat aluminum. I removed 1/2 of the clear suspension fluid making the paint thicker and easier to apply with a brush. Since the background was dark grey. it required two coats with the last one being very close to a dry brushing.

Thank you Gordon. I like silver finishes but dread the process. Tamiya has made it easier to apply.

Another great model Lou.

When I saw the silver finish I thought you would go this way.

Great decals.
