I'm not bothered about the lines at the top of the pipe work as that will be filled in with pigment later on.

Nice shade of green there and very smooth so far. Tbh cant say much more till there's more done

I wholeheartedly concur.

I'm not 100% sure where to go with this. For the local competition he'll just have the generic shading done, but in the long run I'm not sure whether to take him down the battle damaged route or have him look like he's just come off the production line style. What do you guys think?

Oh and this is all being done 100% by brush! No airbrush work, mainly because I still need to get around to saving up and buying one !

Oh, I'd give him some weathering for sure. ^^ But then again, I am a sucker for weathering....

Yes some weathering, but as a compriomise perhaps a almost new machine with just some dust, dirt and not to much weathering?
