Got all the relevant detailing on and have stuck the "scoop" on the front so it can be sprayed/weathered together .. (im bound to knock it off or snap something so watch this space)

Anyway here's what it looks like before .......

And after spraying .(have given the centre recces a graphite grey coat then over-shot with the oxide to give a little more depth)

So its finished, as far as i'm concerned anyway (i was just starting to have enough)

Used a "mistake" that more than a few of us have made in the past by mixing acrylics and celulose together to get a "crazypave" type finish ... normally when you try and reproduce a mistake it doesn't work but this time it worked on all the facets without fail. I think it looks quite "space ragged" overall, and not knowing exactly what space would do to a painted finish ... this will have to do

Used powdered pastels to fill in some detail and then drybrushed silver, brown and black to highlight the raised detail.
