Thanks Rick! I feel like I am so wedded to my Paasche that I am too scared to try something different. I have heard lots about Iwata and the H&S brushes... now to save some money, them brushes ain't cheap...!
In terms of updates, i've come back from being away - the shading I did with oils has dried nicely while I was away. I've now done some chipping, some exhaust staining with pastels, an oil panel line wash, and a flat coat. I think she's now looking suitably 'grimy' - used but not so abused as to look like a tank (i've never understood why some modellers want their aircraft to look like they've flown through a mud storm... ah well...)




Keen to take feedback on the weathering - too much, too little...? You tell me!

Next, undercarriage fitment, then onto the home stretch...!
Cheers!
Brad C
