Fun.

It looks like there's a low gloss on it. What did you use?
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Klear.

I haven't got anywhere close to mastering weathering or some of the effects people use.

I actually put the weathering solution on before I put the gloss on which is why the plane looks dirty. And I'm not a huge fan of Klear anyway - it leaves "bubbles" on it as you are applying and also give that gloss look which I don't particularly like.

But I am very new to this weathering malarky - and nowhere near good enough - but with each model I practice.

Weren't you tempted to do it up in Desert Air force plumage?

Looks great, wish I had the patience to do that.

JudgeDredd

Thanks. It does take some patience...though there are examples out there which show TRUE patience...but I find it very relaxing
