Something I've been working on for a while, had some setbacks with the painting of the body but otherwise I am pretty happy with the outcome so far.
The orange and green are both masked and airbrushed. The silver diamond on the back will be masked and airbrushed in eventually too, but I am waiting before I do that.
The chassis is 90% done, will post some pics of that later when I have it all assembled.

If I can stay motivated, I may finish this one this year (I started it 2 years ago!:eek: )

Looks good!

BTW I don't need the airbrush hose, already have a braided one that works w/the HP-CS. I'll probably do some real painting w/the HP-CS tomorrow.

One of the easiest multi color paint schemes ever, all lines are straight.

It's the 109 decals that'll drive you nutsoid.

Looks great Ray. I built this model once before and used the decals, against my better judgement. It ended up being the worst looking kit in my collection.

I have a second one now, this time I'll paint all the orange and green like you did.

I hope mine comes out as well as yours.

I noticed Zoom Zoom mentioned HP-CS. Be aware that the Hobby Lobby on Bells Ferry now stocks Iwata parts including nozzles and needles (two sizes).
Now with a 40% off coupon from the newspaper or internet..........

That coupon is how I got my HP-CS :D

The store in Cumming had them in back; I had to get a clerk to fetch it for me.

Hope I don't need any parts for a long time, but it's nice to know they have 'em. I've yet to replace any parts on the Badger 175 that I've had for about 8 or 9 years, only once replaced a needle/tip on my Paasche VL when it took a dive onto the concrete. My Model Master/Aztek; now that's another story. One must always have backup parts for those :rolleyes:
