Re: RSO
Thanks, Gary!
I never even thought to put it in the gallery. I just wanted to help get something into the contest.

Hi John
Very Nice Great little scene.
Been doing a Rebuild of the old Italeri kit, seeing this I might even be Reinspired to finish it now.

Re: RSO
Thanks Shaun, Thanks Rob,
Those are the included Magic Tracks, and a whole lotta glue...
I found an interesting article from a guy who advocated airbrushing super-thin acrylic at high pressure, around 35-40 PSI. I thought it was crazy. But gave it a try on a test surface. It works. There are some obvious downsides if you're not very, very careful. But it allowed me to achieve extremely tight control on exactly where and how gradually I added color. This was the key to finally being able to paint tracks while they were still on the model, something I've never been able to do before without also blasting the paint applied to the wheels and underbody.
