A few more piccies, this was a birthday present, the first kit I've built in 20 years!

Excellent weathering I always loved weathering but took it way too far, every train I had was inch thick with black and rusts.
 
Cheers Garuf :) First attempt at it using a Promodeller wash - I was mainly wanting to highlight the panel lines but it ended up looking pretty good I think for my first attempt! And so far, no algae ;)
 
Very nice! When I was younger I loved to build them, but didn't have the money for a proper airbrush kit. After I started working, I have money for an airbrush kit but don't have the time, so am unwilling to spend.

This was the last kit I built about 6 years ago using spray cans.

Hope you don't my thrashing up your thread with errr... second-rate workmanship :lol:
 
Nice Scooby :)

Never did manage to learn to spray though I would love to try an airbrush at some point, the finish looks much better than brushes in most cases!
 
Yep, brush painted :)

Further kits since then, all brush painted:
