The Promodeller Clay wash arrived too so I got stuck in to using that first. The model has a couple of coats of Tamiya Clear on it. The wash goes on straight from the bottle.
The picture here shows the model with wash applied.
After allowing the wash to dry for 20 minutes+ I rubbed off the excess with a damp paper towel. The clay stayed in the detail giving the model some real depth. It also gave a more weathered look too.
A final coat of Lacquer sealed everything in.
It only remained to paint the cockpit up and give it a dip in Future before fixing it on and finally finishing the model. Here's how it looks. I learnt a lot on this one not least of which is how good Alclad products are.
For anyone remotely interested I decided to make a start on my Airfix Lancaster. I have a massive etch to detail it with so this one will take some time. But that is for another post.
As always feedback, comments are appreciated.
