                        Here is a little kit i thought i would experiment with 

                         

                        All min parts have been assembled

                         

                        Instead of preshadding i decided to pai t the whole kit black and build up the top colour so try to get a bit more tones of colour 

                        Main colour down next will be the post shading 

                         

                        The same airframe colour mixed with whites has been airbrush in the centre of each of the panels  

                         

                         

                        A light was has been applied after the aircraft had been futured 

                         

                        Decals have been added awaiting matt clear coat time to start with the base now 

                        So hers is the base i decided i needed something a little different so wanted to try a ned idea i had which is to use clear silicone over a googled image of of some water the silicone sealant over the image i think looks like a rippeling sea what do u guys think of the progress so far 

                         

                         

                         

                         

                         

                         

                        What do u all think comments and question all welcome

                        Thats a pretty neat idea to use for a base. Wonder if that'll work for ship bases?
