Very nice start of the camo, Spiros.
Looking great already.

Camo looks great, Spiros (@fiveten). I also think Greek camo on the F-16 looks really cool. Things are really coming together.

Looking good! I bought the set of Akan/Akah Aegean Ghost scheme for my Phantom - what did you use for yours?

Excellent airbrushing, Spiros. You achieve results freehanding the camo that I usually only get with masks. I think enamels maybe given you a finer, more even spray than acrylics as I get spatters too much along the way. The one exception is doing German style mottling with my custom micron. Can't go wrong with that piece of equipment but I reserve it only for the finest jobs. Love the HAF F-16 and its unique colors. Your friend will be very happy with this one.

Thanks my friends @coling and @airbum!

I am used to enamels, never tried acrylics, so all I can say is that I am happy with enamels (well, almost always, I have come into "grainy" situations a few times - maybe due to my fault). As you might have guessed, I am using my Revell Vario (which actualy is a Thayer & Chandler Vega) at its finest settings, lower the pressure a tad, thin the paint a tadder(!), hoping not to splat!

I have heard that many acrylics behave really well and it might be the way to go in the future.

One big problem I have with enamels is that whites tend to yellow with time. Maybe its me, maybe it has to do with the brand,maybe it's the top transparent coating that does it...

I had a lot of trouble switching over from enamels when they started getting scarce in the US. I finally got comfortable with Tamiya paints, and now AK Real Colors. Both are hybrid paints that feature acrylic color suspended in a liquid carrier. Tamiya is very good, but has a limited color range. I now use AK Real Color, which is really good. It uses acrylic colors carried in a synthetic lacquer liquid. This liquid is supposedly less toxic than the old lacquer, and has much less odor. Tamiya is supposed to be similar, but I don't know what the liquid is. Both of these are easy to use, and neither clogs my airbrush. Win-win. :o) I think the bottom line is that we tend to use what we are comfortable with, and you get obviously good results with enamels, Spiros (@fiveten).

Thanks for the feedback, my friends @airbum and @gblair!

Thanks my friend @mornem!
