You did a great job at weathering and detailing. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the kind words. I really had a tough time with those tiny detail parts! My wife is always picking on my big hands and fingers. Especially when I'm typing on the Blackberry!!!

Both the paint and detailing look great, especially for a first try. My first try is in a landfill somewhere.

How did you get the paint to dull down. Looks perfect!

I purchased a 24 color pastel set from michaels. I used the dark blue and light blue and sealed it with airbrush dullcote. And Thanks for the kind words.
