Thanks guys. Two coats of VMS a gloss, but it seems to have taken the shine off.

Strange about the VMS Gloss..........it worked quite well for me but i did give it about 5 heavyish coats. Looking nice `n` shiny in the altenative gloss |

That looks grand Tommy . VMS Gloss is weird stuff, the warmer the temperature, is the better it sprays. Also spraying with a small nozzle ie0.3mm, will not work. The same as too high pressure, which could be what happened here. |

Nice job, you made doing around them windows look easy, did you use a paint brush or one of them chrome pens?

Paint brush Robbo. Here is the little scene. The girl is one of the ladies from the Somewhere in Saigon set. Had a heck of a job to get the face to look feminine. Then I realized I had too much shadow under the chin. That did the trick.  Will add pictures tonight when I can get the lighting okay and the dust does not show so much. |
