Saw DannyB post a link to this model on ebay, so i bought one, took about 2 weeks to arrive though.
have started to paint it.
this is him unpainted
i have 4 white and 4 black paints to pick from
first i painted his overalls in matt white, hard to see i guess as its already white, but helmet is unpainted
waited hour or so for paint to dry then did the helmet in a gloss white
now waiting for that to dry

There's no difference apart from his crash helmet looks shiny now

if you look at the helmet in the pic where its unpainted, thats how his overalls looked, kinda soapy.
Do you think i need to employ some advanced weathering techniques?
