Looks great so far! I know John’s recommendation on AS-12 is solid. I also like using Tamiya’s Shine Silver, too. I tried using Model Master on some resin rocket bells and like you found it prone to grain.

I hear ya Bruce. The only saving grace is that most of this area will be in the shadows which helps that much more. Corrected paints are on order though.

Worked on the other wall the last few days and then deepened the effects some both walls.

The wiring looks great!
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Lovely work.
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!"..

Those wire bundles look awesome! I've always wanted to try that on some of my builds.
