Just been looking at your pictures and must say you get a very lovely finish on your paint. Was trying to work out if you seal and sand or paint and sand and paint again to get those very even and very effective finishes.

Either way I am very impressed because this sort of work takes some real skill and a whole host of dedication.

Kind regards to you.
Happy Modelling

Hi I just sand the wood until smooth then paint it a couple off times until I'm happy with the finish, this is the paint and masking tape, hope this helps.

You pulled that fighting platform issue back on track very well.

Hope you have a lid over that box of blocks on your work bench because it's the sort of thing the "gremlins" will gave you knocking over before you know it Confused
