Hi there

Nice job! I really like the mottling - that's the bit that always scares me! I just know that any second the airbrush is going back-fire or flood the whole kit... so REALLY neat stuff!

Have you made a base for her? I think Holdfast's still expecting everyone to make some sort of base - however simple.

All the best

Rowan :-)

The base is going to be rather simple.a grass covered field section with som kicked up mud,and a lone figure reading a map.

Hi Airwarrior

It's only when you see pot of paint next to it, that you realise just HOW SMALL a 1/72 plane is when you're used to 1/48!!

If I ever write a post complaining that things are too small to work on... send a digital kick up the arse!!

That is a GREAT job on the mottling....

All the best
