No Bob straight out of the bottle. It is very thin. I would have a little practice as it is different
to Vallejo. I put two coats on & got a great finish for decals.

Used a .35nozzle at 25 PSI.

thanks Laurie (late reply sorry)

Afternoon chaps

used graphite along the edges, added rust and grime streaks and spilt fuel, think the streaks look a bit to big?

Hi Bob,
Hope your feeling better? Your practice work on the panther is coming along really well, liking the rust streaks from the chipped paint areas :thumb2:

Hi Si,

Thanks for asking, seen a consultant this week, who wants a scan but also for me to also see a cardiologist, a bit worried what's going on


:anguished:

[BattleshipBob]

Sorry Laurie, yes a old trick I think but works!

[Steve Jones]

Well done Bob. Certainly getting into that weathering groove. Are you going to have a go at any dust work on this model??

[BattleshipBob]

Thanks Steve, think.some of the streaks are a bit too thick?

Yes either pigments or airbrush, scary lol

[Steve Jones]

You can get some nice dust effects by dry brushing with oils as well - just to confuse you even more :smiling5:

[BattleshipBob]

Stop it Steve my tiny brain is over heating lol been practicing exhausts with pigments and looking good!

Bob,
The streaking looks fine to me.

[Guest]

Looking very fine indeed Bob. Cracking work.

[BattleshipBob]

Thats good enough for me! Started on the marder, will be fun doing the interior!

Hi Peter, much appreciated, pleased so far but still a bit unsure with some ideas. Big learning curve
