Did you brush paint it with Tamiya? If so you are a very brave man indeed ;D What kind of base will you put it on? Cheers, Waldorf

I used my patented airbrush. ie the brush goes through the air after being dipped in the paint.
As you know Tamiya paint is a pig to brush on, so i built it up in thinish washes and spent a lot of time dry brushing with Andrea and artists acrylics.

it does actually better in the flesh so to speak.

The base is dependant on what i can find in the woodpile, i think i have a piece of oak i can cover with mud.
