I built the Academy Ju87G-1 pretty much
out of the box except for PE seat harnesses and aftermarket swastikas.
Kit decals used otherwise. To get the "Spring 1943" effect that I was
looking for, I did a standard splinter scheme using Floquil Military
Colors, then shot gloss and decalled as normal. I use Testors
Gloss-Cote; given up on Future except for limited usage.
I then gloss coated over the decals to seal them in and to provide a
barrier. Next I sprayed a light dusting of Floquil Reefer White. Before
it really had time cure completely, I then used Novus 3 to polish away
some of the white. That left the effect I was seeking. A quick spray of
Testor's Dull-Cote and it was pretty much finished except for some
weathering.
