That is quite a productive Sunday you had there. Hairspray and nailpolishremover - the beauty saloon might soon have to add kits to their lines of products 🙂
Great tips - thanks.

You're just moving along there, wow. makes my plodding progress on my Zero that much slower. Just one observation, it looks like the propeller blades have some parting lines (?) than need a bit of cleaning up.

So I got the field applied paint job pretty much done. I used a couple different greens and yellow highly thinned to build it up. Also did some chipping. This is my second time doing this and I definitely need more practice. To me it looks more like worn paint. I'd like to get more of a paint flakes chipping off look in areas. This kit doesn't have much surface detail which also makes it a little harder to make the chipping area look realistic. Anyways thats it for now.

I used the same hairspray. I think I just need more practice on my technique

Hmmm, well the small chips are perfect at the periphery. You could try to chip some more in the middle of the wing root to expose more metal (or very gently sand it if the HS has already been activated). It could also be that Tamiya acrylics chip easier, so a lighter coat of HS and a lighter touch is required? No idea

Looking great, my friend @jmillan!
Chipping looks improved, for sure!
Looking forward to this beautiful bird crossing the finish line!

Oh yeah, looks really good now with the chipping and the underside oils. You've really got a good build pace, so good that you better start planning your next one.

If this was my model, I would lightly spray a little paint over some of the chipping you have on it now. Use a combination of the Amber Gray and the Green for the colors. I would do the painting mainly on the fuselage, and leave the wings and wing roots as they are. Then I would add some chipping on the leading edges of the wings. I would also take a toothpick and add some scratches on the ammunition covers and some of the access panels on the top side of the wing.
As far as the colors go, I think it looks as it should. You have this part looking great, to my eyes anyhow.

If you look at this picture, you can see how they didn't add Green around the canopy frames. Instead they left them in the original color. Likely they didn't have the time or the resources to mask the canopy.

But in the end, it's your plane... so paint it how you like. I have around 5 different Zero kits started on the table right now. One will be completed like the one in the picture I just posted.
