Looking very nice there. Highlighting the bolt heads, I do that with most of the raised areas using a lighter tone for larger parts and then an even lighter one for the smaller ones. It looks rather other the top to start with but it’s done before the weathering which tones everything down and brings the colours together. Is it realistic, probably not, do I find it visual interesting, I certainly do. Thanks, jabbly. Good advice. I was following Uncle Night Shift on the bolt heads. There are a bit too many to make it enjoyable.

Chipping with a sponge and some more DAK streaking. Tested positive for the lurgy yesterday. Don’t feel too bad considering. Just a slight flu. Had worse hangovers, definitely. Must have got the pussy version or like everything else made in China, it’s crap!!!

Actually feeling good now. Just a bunged up nose. My daughter has started coughing which is worrying. Added some sand and plant material and held it in place with VMS fixer.

Looking good, Tommy. Hope you and your family will be in the clear soon. When I had it, I had one bad day at the beginning, then I was ok even though I tested positive on day nine.
