Another presentation of the progress of painting works.
Camouflage has a slight color modulation.
I am thinking about the wash. In 1/35 scale it is a classic. However, on a 1/700 scale, I think it should be very subtle.

Another photographic report on the progress of work on the model.
I consider it a success that the subsequent layers of paint did not come off with the masking tape. It wasn't easy.

After a long break, I have just returned to my Unyo. I had to do weathering, armament details and masts.
Soon I will post photos from the workshop.

Dan thank you very much.
However, the topic of Unyu will have a continuation:

Looks like two nice projects. Are you building Shinyo from the Aoshima Unyo/Yawata Maru kit?
