Your Eagle looks great, Jim- a most respectable finish.

The LM looks great, Jim. I know what you mean about the base. You could always give it a covering with Polyfilla (or the Aus equivalent). Once it's dried, a coat of PVA and add some fine sand. Spray black then drydrush greys and white.

Wow that looks nice and the powered ascent photo is really cool.

Well done.

Thanks guys.

Ian, I like your idea, your base looks fantastic. I've sprayed the base with a dark grey and thought I might do some dry brushing and see how it looks to start with. With it all dark grey it doesn't look as horrific as I thought...

Cheers
Jim
