Fermis, your paint and weathering skills are just amazing. Very real, believable and just right. Never over done.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

No probs here.
The black tip and yellow tip on the tanks are the only thing painted over the NMF. Black covers, no prob. I treated the yellow just like on any color...flat white first, then the yellow.
