Great video!Anyway, it looks a bit too stark and contrasty now, I think.

Great video!
Also, I always think the same thing, but often once I apply a flat coat it seems to knock everything back a few notches and level it all out. I often think my kit is a bit overweathered or even like you a bit too much contrast in some areas. As soon as I apply the flat coat it looks perfect.
Anyway, looking great!
It is really coming together now! Excellent work
I find mist coating with the base color and grime/shades colors is the best way to tie the weathering all together. You want your paint thinned down a lot and applied in light layers. I Think it is is key to getting the Star Wars look
I am going to need to try that out, I have always read and saw info on most coats but I have never attempted it on a kit.
Straight out of ILM archives as far as I'm concerned.Almost there... I repainted the front guns since I took this photo. I think all that's left is to clear coat it with flat clear and then do the R2 unit.

Awwww thanks man. The last few weeks have been crazy (we had a baby!) but I'll get this bird finished up soon enough and post some legit final photos.Straight out of ILM archives as far as I'm concerned.
