    The color looks good to me, and the pre-shading seems to have given just the right amount of weathering - enough that the detail pops, but the ship doesn't actually look "dirty".

    Hey thanks guys, i really wasnt sure on the color but the more i look at it the more im happy with my choice of mix, and as its my first time preshading im gonna use this technique way more in future rather than washing an entire build. Long time no speak greg but hope your well and very busy lol, got just a plain old rod mount already reamed in the underside of the centre unit, then its just goin in a plain ol' display case, cant beleive im gonna finish a build the end of this week, i needed it lol.

    Nice looking TIE Bomber you have there. Here's the "Backlot Studios" TIE Bomber I entered at the 2005 IPMS/USA Convention that won second place.
