Nearly there Bob, very good work

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Joe.

Just got to gloss the underside now so hopefully I can get going with the weathering this week.

[Mr Bowcat]

Made a start on the weathering with a pin wash and sum dirt streaking using starship filth.

looking suitably used. :thumb2:

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Tim.

The streaking looks quite prominent in the pics, but more subtle in the flesh. I've got to do the underside next then go at it with some other oils for staining and fading.

Cheers Steve.

Hi Bob
Bombs and missiles look excellent and the weathering on the plane is first class - subtle but effective.

I finished the pin wash and set to work with the oilbrushers. The idea was to create wear and discolouration, but I can't decide if I've overdone it. :thinking:

I'll leave it overnight and look again in daylight. Being oils I can still knock it back if I decide it's too strong.

Looks good to me Bob.

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Pete, but I've almost immediately decided it was too strong so I've knocked it back a little. To my eyes it looks better now.
