M20 update.

I have now sprayed on the highlights and a few lowlights. In my haste to get this finished i forgot to photograph it at this stage. However i have photographed it half way through a dark wash to see the difference it makes to the model. I used Mig dark brown wash straight from the bottle as i had let the highlights/modulated colours become very light, in fact i thought i had over done it. The dark wash was perfect and the results speak for themselves. When the wash had dried, i dampened a brush with thinners for washes and made downward strokes on the panels to simulate rain and dirt streaks.
Wheels have received a coat of NATO black and then had a diluted wash of Tamiya buff added in several coats to give a dusty look to the tyre walls before adding pigments. The interior mask has also been removed. Detail painting is next and painting of the stowage items as well. More soon!

First diluted buff wash added.

adding the wash colour.

You can clearly see the effect the wash is having on the colours.

Looking good now the mask has been removed.
