Nice job. Black is tough to do convincingly and you did it. Ditto on the chipping. I look forward to more of your work.

Thank you ! i have to confess the oppposite side of the nav light has been painted very badly by me, so i chose to hide them and this result in the wrongly installation of the light:)

I built that kit last fall; very enjoyable.  Your weathering is top notch, in my books.

I build 1/48 scale WW2 fighters.

Have fun.

 very nice! The black camo looks right on. I like the prop blade chipping too. The nav light colors are Opposite what you've painted though

Hello guys, this is my very first post on finescale, i've been built this black beauty since last year, thanks god finally i finish it!

I've always prefer a night fighter and this is the first time i tried black monotone camouflage, i have preshade it and us oil paint to add the weathering effect. someone may have noticed there's a mistake on the royal airforce emblem, i forgot to add the red dot before i took these pictures, besides, the emblem on the wing were painted instead of using a decal(by the way the tamiya decal in this box are not very good, they do not surrender to my microset and microsol...)
