Looking good Jim, how about giving weathering a go it makes a big difference and you don't have to buy expensive weathering products, in fact my favourite weathering tool is free (the sludge in the bottom of your brush cleaning bottle) (assuming you're using enamel of course)

tamiya acrilic paint ken and car paint

Well I'm not going to drag up the enamels/acrylics thing again but that's why I like enamel so much more versatile IMHO.
