Looks very good, as Paul has linked to the starmer mixes they are a very good resource and I've used them to good effect on many of my builds.

Thanks for the link to the paints. I went with 5 white 2 yellow 2 desert yellow. Just done the camo. My hands are still shaking. Guess I’ve popped my airbrush cherry.   |

Love it Tommy . Believe me, you'll never want to be without an airbrush again Except when it starts spluttering and clogging up for no apparent reason! |

Love it Tommy . Believe me, you'll never want to be without an airbrush again Except when it starts spluttering and clogging up for no apparent reason! Jase, I have a Harder&Steinbeck Infinity and I haven't got these issues. Before the H&S I had an Aztek...which is garbage. |

I have an Aztek, haven't used it for ages now. They are a pain in the bottom to control  |

Thanks everyone. I am pleased with the paint job.
I can see how a double action airbrush would be so much better though.

Tommy, have a look a Fengda airbrush. They are cheap and perfect for newcomers to practice and get the hang of. In fact I've been using one for the last 5 years now  |

Thanks. I’ll practice with my Tamiya one first, before moving on. Now my crusader has been varnished, I’ve got to wait 3 days before the VMS chip and nick can be used. So, I’ve had a go at the gubbings and the shrine. Very pleased with it though maybe more Greek or Italian than North African.  |
