I like it. Reminds me of a procedure we used to do in college called the "Japaneze flag treatment"

Any idea to the technique for air-brushing the checker pattern like this? Do you start solid silver then cut out lots of masking squares to cover the silver and then paint the black?

Parma makes masks pre-cut that transfer onto the canopy already in the checker pattern.

Here's my two. Not the greatest paint jobs but I have yet to decide whether or not to buy the air brush setup. These were done with Dupli-Color automotive paint followed with the Dupli-Color Clear.

As far as the checker pattern, I have seen it done like this. make a mask for every other column. Spray it, let it dry, and then move the mask over one row and down one column, and spray the rest... takes more time, but looks perfect in the end.. as long as you line the mask up right, the second time... gonna be harder on a curved surface rather than a flat checker board, which is what I saw it done on.... I think the same principle applies tho...

But Honey, I can't live with just stock.....

I'm a fan of the Sharpie markers.. Aorbrushing is just so much more expensive.. ;o The green one is the first, red's the second. They're both intact, though the red one just had a MAJOR crash.
