Fox' way of painting

Someone ask me how I paint my 1/144 minis , no " boast" ( google trad) just my way of painting fast.
First ,excuse my poor english, I hope you will understand.
I'll paint some polikarpov.

First the layers of spray, green above and blue under.I'm using spray bombs that you can find in Art store ,for tags, there's a lot of color and these are less expensive than other primers from other companies...

After the sprays I put ligth green with a brush

I take diluted dark green ( the final color I want) and apply one layer, a second one if needed , a third etc...

At a distance for playing I'm satisfied with 2 layers but It's not the same for all planes , sometimes more or less.
We can see the slight difference between the two planes . The more layers you have ,more the light green disappear.

Natural amber with brush, metal ,and natural amber again

Black on engine.

apply decals, paint the pilote , put and paint cockpit canopy
green painting on some parts of decal.
I never put the decal under the plane , the are not seen in games so I keep them for other use.

Here it is
