| Don C | Dave Diels Engineering, Inc Plan #59, Curtiss C-46 Commando | Build | 03-Mar-15 11:44 |  | | Views : 717 | | David. Here are 2 shots with no artificial light at all. This is a stock acrylic. Ihave tried adding yellow and/or brown in varying amounts, but this is closer to the Model Master OD than my mixes. I could use some advice from the artist. As you mentioned. Seems just a tad too green. |
