All constructive criticism welcome 🙂 suggestions for improvements?

I like it. 👍 What I would sugest, is a Matt varnish cote on the figures clouths, and to reduce the decal silvering, cut the excess suport film and use gloss varnish before apply them. Also use decal pruducts like Micro set or Micro sol, should help.

Bruce Huxtable
Thanks for your advice, Rui. I'm having no luck with Matt varnishes. I've tried Humbrol Matt Cote and also an acrylic Matt varnish. Neither seem to reduce shine ☹️ All of the paints were meant to be Matt too! I've tried a satin Cote on aircraft before applying decals, and use DecalFix now too. These seem to work well in most situations.

Be welcome Bruce, did you use enamell or acrilic Humbrol Matt Cote?
I use enamell, but if I dont mixe it well, it dosen't work.

Bruce Huxtable
Enamel, Rui. I'll give it a good stir and see if that works better.

THX Bruce.
If you use an airbrush you should be ok.

Bruce Huxtable
No, just brushes. I am finding acrylic paints much easier to achieve a good finish, and enjoying these challenges ?
