Finished this recently for Piers ‘Between the Wars’ GB.
Not my best work, I couldn’t get the paint to cover so I left the masking on waaayyy too long and it ended up with raised lines between the camo. I later found out the paint, in plastic squeeze bottles wasn’t mixed well even though I shook the living krap out of it. I had to remove the caps and stick a wire up in the bottle and mix it to get it mixed properly.
So I tried a slightly different technique with the wash to pick out all the rivets. And made a bit of a mess out of it. Still I wasn’t going to strip the whole thing and repaint. So I went ahead and finished her.
So what the heck, here she is…
