After the last lot of dry brushing

the model was given another coat

of smelly Testors Dullcoat,

Then it was onto the colours that I

didn’t want to be matted. Metal

areas were given a three stage

process of GW Boltgun Metal,

then Chainmail and finally Mithril

Silver in lessening amounts. I did

the same thing to the ‘window’

areas.

The metal work is very effective

over the rust but - obviously -

shows up less well on areas that

are painted grey or blue.

After that had dried, I painted two

coats of Tamiya clear acrylic - first

blue and then smoke on all of the

windows. I used green clear on

monitor screens on door controls. I

was happy with the windows even

if they are a bit too similar, tonally,

to the doors.

Had I planned it out better, I would have chosen a different colour for the doors
