30. I airbrushed the undersides Calgar Blue
Then I finished the engines.
32. The top was then done in Eshin Grey, and the tail fins Blood Red
33. The whole model was given a liberal brushing of Nuln Oil wash. Yes, I use more than just Agrax Earthshade. Which I used to wash the landing skid bay.
34. Then the outer wings were attached to the engines, then the engines to the wings, as well as the landing skid and strut.
35. The upper surfaces were dry brushed with the grey, and the underside dry brushed in a lightened shade of the blue.
36.The gun bay was dry brushed with various metallic paints, then a heavy dry brushing of black to represent soot from the firing of the Avenger Cannon.
37. The leading edges of the wings, and the upper wing surfaces were given a light dry brushing of Necron Compound, then the cannon, las-cannons and hard points were mounted.
38. I added some random water slide decals I had left over from some other GW kits.
39. Then it was permanently adding the pilot and navigator.
40. The base was done with aquarium sand, Astrogranite textured paint, washes of Nuln Oil and Agrax Earthshade, dry brushed light gray on the concrete side, with the yellow lines being added with the assistance of blue tape. The "dirt" side was dry brushed XV-88, then a few shades of green in spotty areas. a few variations of green Woodland Senics flock with a Woodland Senics bush were added in for effect. Two weeds were added to the joint between the dirt and the concrete.
The canopies are not glued down, as with them on, it is impossible to see any detail in the cockpits.
The last steps are to pull out the pigments for the final weathering and dullcoat. I will have some better pictures next time, as well as a summary of the experience.
