I will back Karl up on the satin or semi-gloss. I use a "Matte" varnish which is more like a semi-gloss than a gloss.

So far, this is amazing work G. All of it. Have fun with the filters  :D:D

Gloss followed by decals and detail painting. Another coat of gloss ready for washes and filters. Karl was suggesting satin rather than gloss, so I may do my runny pin washes on the gloss, then satin clear, then filters and pigments.

I really do want to smudge the thing up some.

Last picture really shows what nice col  or you achieved.

I liked the shadows and the nice clean build.

My current armor build. This is kind of an incredible kit. Not hard, not easy but so well designed it's almost failure proof. Just added conduits to the electricals and some fuel hoses and other really minor details.
