Man, Stik, that is beautiful. An ex-Bundeswehrsoldat salutes you!

Would like to see a more detailed shot to have a better look at the oil effects.

Thanks guys. I think the oils results were a little spotty, better in some areas than others. I’ll get some detail photos up tomorrow.
Almost ready for the final stages. I have a couple things to do that should really improve the look... :bag: :whistle:

Wow, the anticipation is rising, especially after seeing this teaser with all the wash on it. Brilliant work Carlos! I'm so looking forward to seeing that in person.

Thanks Mark. I want to get this wrapped up in time for AMPS in a few weeks.

Bruce and Torben, here are a few close ups of some of the wash areas

Thanks for the additional shot, Carlos! That's a nice and subtle effect.

I agree, that is excellent work on that wash. It does improve this tremendously.

Thank you gentlemen. The wash will really get toned down after a flat coat and the next bits of weathering.
