This is my latest build. I had a lot of fun with it especially with painting.

What did you do for a wash? The rivets and panel lines are superb on this model.

I'm using oil paints from VanGogh, in this case I used ivory black with VanDyke brown in ratio about 4 to 1.
But the thing is that I do not thin it very much, I rather put a thick paint straight on the gloss surface and few minutes later when it's dry i wipe it off.

Thanks for the tip. I'm going to try your method.
