        Another cracker Dave. The weathering looks just right, giving a used and operational look without over powering the base paint work. Great stuff.

            Really very good Dave, well built, well painted and nicely weathered. A word of warning though mate. Weathering can be very addictive

                    I see pre / post shading and weathering. Nice job. It's now time to get your hands on a really dirty bird.

                      No preshading on this one Colin.I can't quite get the hang of it so don't bother.

                          Ok, the underside looked like the result of a good bit of pre-shading. I know what you mean about pre-shading. I normally do it, and then often loose it under the colour !
