            Looking good Paul, you'll just have to resist the temptation to eat the width indicators!

                Following the pre shade it received a coat of Tamyia dark yellow. When dry brown and green stripes were applied. When this had dried hard two coats of hairspray were applied after an hour a coat of VJ off white was sprayed all over. Next using a stiff brush and a toothpick the white was distressed.
                This has now been sealed with Klear ready for the washes and pin washes.

                Please be brutal I'm not sure it worked.

                    The hairspray technique is not something I have tried sincecoming back to the hobby, so I can't really comment with any authority but I like it a lot.

                      Not something I used, tried it once and went back to chipping fluid, but this has worked well. You seem to have the hang of it Paul.

                          Hi John, as I said to Andrew sometimes are better than others. But I'm to tight to buy special products.

                              Certainly looks well worn - interesting to read the techniques used to get the result :thumb2:
