Thanks chaps  Pete I'm certainly happy with the product . Thanks for letting me know about it . Boots did you get the VMS thinner ? I've been using Tamiya X20A in the VMS flat and it works fine . Glad you like it Guy

That looks absolutely brilliant Carl  . I have been using that VMS gear for quite a while now, and it has IMHO the same effect as the good ole Testors/Modelmaster Dullcote  . Only this stuff doesn't stink the house out

Paul I used the Testors Dulcoat also back in the day . I used too much of it once with the spray can and my M4 tank looked like a fur ball . Thanks Marco Boots I think it might be 2 parts thinner to 1 part flat , not sure mucker . I put a few drops of VMS flat in the bowl of my AB and add the thinner . I like my flat coats thin so I can control the build up of it . HTH mate .

Superb finish Carl, a signature build and very nice indeed. Just shows what you can do with an older kit with careful assembly and wizard painting skills

I'll agree with Pete there  . These old kits really have it in them, specially with painting skills like yours Carl
