Great job mate! I like the photos outside with the sky and clouds in the background! When we get decent weather here, all the snow has cleared away and the leaves are back on the trees, I have to take some outdoor photos of my builds!

Seriously! A weekend build? I'd still be filling in my crap rescribing.

Nice pics especially the second one

Indeed this was done in a weekend? How did the paint even have a chance to dry properly?

Nice job!

Thanks mate. It's true I build and primed on Sat, paint on Sunday.
For me, I don't have an airbrush so everything is brush painted, including varnishes. The paints I use are Vallejo and Lifecolour. They dry to a perfect touch within 30mins to be honest, don't really need whole day. Once paints are dry, I varnish with vallejo which is also quick to dry, decals... oil wash, wait prob 1hr for things to settle, spray overcoat varnish using tamiya cans, play with it outside, then done.

I might take my time on bigger projects like 1:35 afv, but 1:72 ww2 planes are small and quick. But generally this is my method and been doing this for a long time with no issues about paint/varnish.
