| Nice spot of detail Nigel. What did you do the pre-shading with? I am not too sure that this has a great deal of effect.
I think putting a wash over a coat of future gives more realistic panel shading. Are you going to do that as well or let the preshading show through and do the job?
Coming along nicely though. | |

| It depends on scale sometimes it looks right other times you still need a wash also the paint may be too opaque to let it show thru and in that case its a coat of klear and then redone with a draughting pen (isograph) | |

| Coming along very nicely Nigel. You certainly can't beat the shape of a Spitfire.
I like the extra detailed bits inside the engine bay. Is this destined for a diorama? | |
