I like your work on this Ratch. Forgive me if it should be obvious, but what colour scheme are you creating there?

A little further along today 
I'm not convinced by the wear 'n' tear on the panel lines  I think they may need subduing somewhat, although they're not as pronounced in natural light

Your hurricane is really starting to take shape there Ratch. I like the panel lines detail. I was wondering how you would do it on a black paint scheme since a dark wash would obviously not work.

Looking good so far, are you brush paint this one?
Perhaps a thin dark wash in the panel lines would dull down the brightness?

Yes Owen, it has been brush-painted, too cold for airbrushing

Sounds like the way to go with this one
