I normally use Tamiya acrylic and mix the Luftwaffe colors according to a chart devised by Tamiya and modified to my own taste.

The canopy has been fitted and taped. The entire model has been washed again with dishwashing soap, rinsed and dried and blown dry with my airbrush.

Particular attention has to be paid to the front wing joint - sand where needed. I use sanding sticks - course - medium - fine.
