Thanks Dave I appreciate it! Cheers

[@simon8723]

Good work! Question, how do you embed the powder pigment once applied. I’m asking as I’ve never used it before and, if applied on the exterior of a model (exhaust say) do you apply some mat spray?

[@johnalecsscalemodeling]

Thank you Simon! Good question, yes you can use a matt varnish, I have pigment setter from AK which is an enamel based solution. Smells a lot like mineral spirits. I've see people use alcohol/PVA glue mixes. I did not use any this time. I added the gunge wash then added the pigment then did the pin wash so the pigments stayed pretty well. Thanks for watching!
