Thanks for looking in and comments. I finished the second Rangefinder then Primed with badger stynylrez primer. I thought I'd try it out after reading a few reviews. I must say its very good. Thinned 50% with UMP thinners and a few drops of WN flow improver. I then gave it a coat of the Light grey, now mark out and mask for the Darker grey.

Hi Chris,  Absolutely "Top Notch" work.  You are a braver man than me, I`d be scared stiff weathering over all that great paint work.  I`m sure it will look great with your expertise. Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

Regards delboy271155 (Derek) Yeah can be daunting lol, I give a clear coat to protect the paint then weather a little then clear coat then add more weathering so I can rub off if I don't like what I've done. Thanks all for looking in. Here I have weathered to what I think is enough without overdoing it.
