Yes, I had some left over from KGV Thanks Greg, They are gorgeous aren't they.... Personally I think they (Infini) offer the best looking 1/350th scale small caliber AA weapons even beating out the resin guys.... I have their water cooled .50 cal set and they look every bit as good as those 20mm's.... (and they give you enough of them) Believe it or not, those pedestal bases and barrels are turned brass, not PE.... amazing quality, and looks way better than PE ever could....

RGL Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share #88 Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) Aaaaand done, I used a few washes to bring out the highlights, then a dry brush to white to hit the night points on the rivets etc. Then some streaking grime, then some dark brown to represent chipped rust points, then some streaked rust from those points. i know someone is going to say “they would never let it get that bad” but I don’t know boats.
