This is my SBD-3 1/48. I built the Hasegawa
kit out of the box. The paints I used were Model Master enamels Blue Grey/Light
Grey and after the painting, I applied the decals and after a coat of Model
Master Flat Clear acrylic, I gave it a total wash of a mix of thinned Tamiya
enamels flat black and khaki. Then a big brush with clear lighter fluid was used
to clean out the wash.

Instead of having a clean surface, I used the flat base
coat because it will leave the wash and give the plane a good weathered effect.
When I see pictures of the carrier airplanes in WWII, I see they are REALLY
dirty...so I tried to do it to my plane, too.
