click!

Just finished the kit. I've done preshading on this one and it went very well. The weathering made the kit look bad (shouldn't have weathered it).

Very good mate!
The weathering looks fine to me.
Cheers

What do you think is wrong with the weathering. It seems fine to me?

Weathering makes a plane look used, bathered and used under circumstances that don't permit showroom maintenance.

The weathering on your plane seems to be doing just that, so what is the problem?

Thanks. I should have used powders to simulate smoke but on that model, I tried using drybrushed oils. As a result, you can see streaks of brushes, in which using powders would produce a "softer" smoke
