Hi gave the hole model a second coat of Klear to seal the decals....24h and have started the weathering using oils on the side skirts, lighter colour at the top darker to bottom.
Before and after.

Thank you for looking in not to happy with it might not put the skirts on at all now, it's all back in the box at the minute will have a think.

Hi I've had a think more like a :sleeping: and have striped what I'd already done and started again.
So added a light wash and the chipping and will let it dry overnight and then on with a dull coat tomorrow then some more weathering.


Thank you for looking in hope you like it.
Pete.

 

[Guest]

Hi managed to get the dull coat on and has dried for two days so had a test fit before I finish the weathering off.

Thank for looking in.

Pete,
How can you call that a stalled build????

That is an excellent piece of modelling. Think you have the right amount of "wear",
combined with the right amount of "dust".
The Minion's have done you proud.
Looks the business :thumb2: :thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:.
