That conning tower looks great. I love the weathering on it and the figures really bring it to life.

Awesome Viktor. How did you weather it? I have a sub I have to weather and not quite sure about how to go about it. Yours looks great.

Why didn't you tell me to send you some colors and effects already prepared with the last parcel?
Many tricks appears in the magazine and you have one.Only need to use more the wet brush.
Give me some time and I will send you a PM about this.
All the best,
Victor
