Me too. I spent too much time going round in circless at the moment, but i think thats for the best of the overall final result.

It looks like so now- after wash, filters, and delicate fadeing with light grey:

Paint chipping done using black, and brown enamels, mixed with some graphite dust.
Rail, and footpegs edges polished with 5B Derwent pencil.


Have nice weekend lads.

and the pic on your blog showing the periscope housing from aft is excellent. Looks more toward grey than blue there, which maybe truer to RL colour?

I think thats the effect of Mig filters. The color changes accordingly to light, and the angle of wiev.

That conning tower close-up does look very, very real.

Maybe you said earlier and I missed it, but what kind of camera are you using for those shots?
