After a day of prolonged rain the best place to be was either asleep or in the cave.
I'd previously applied a gloss varnish to the model and all the small parts. These had been sitting drying over night.
Even with a gloss coat the oil wash didn't want to flow, suspect the mix was to rich and not enough medium. Soon I had three separate plastic tops with different mixed in.
The first oil wash can dry, then I can blend it in, as I start in the rust colours.
I wanted the black around he turret to look like smoke deposits.
Nice group of Hornets, this time I've used old sprue, dab of CA, done.
I like the wheel assembly with half the shaft .
Comments please, have I got it rightso far ?
Still a lot of work to do with the oils.
Then the figures
