It's a deceptively colourful aircraft isn't it. Excellent work Ian ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

You have those intake well and truly sorted, doesn't matter what aircraft you always have them nailed ![](http://www.allsmileys.com/files/smiley-central-emotions/5186.gif) Now, here's a serious question. How did you tint the canopy?

How did you tint the canopy? Thanks, Paul! Zero effort on the canopy on my part. For their F-22 and F-16 boxings, Hasegawa provides tinted canopies.

That does look really good, and tinted canopies is what more manufacturers should offer..

Thanks, Bert! Yes, it is a nice touch because the Raptor definitely has a very distinct tint on the glass.

This is shaping up to be a show stopper Ian, there's a lot of work going on too!

Would Tamiya clear yellow do the trick?

Post by Ian H. on Aug 25, 2024 17:29:22 GMT
Thanks, gents! Bert, I have heard of a technique where modelers actually spray a mixture of Tamiya Clear and Tamiya Smoke but I have never attempted that.
