Thanks, Kevin, for posting that. The new tricks for shading should really help modelers tackle that concept without as much anxiety.

That sounds great. I've been really pleased with their OD for my T28 build and some of my crude results with color modulation. The one issue that I have is that the different shades I mix are tough to exactly reproduce when I'm touching stuff up, so having those pre-mixed is very helpful.

Personally I'm looking forward to trying out the weathering set for Green vehicles, since I mostly model USA WWII-Vietnam.

Interesting to go to half size bottles, hopefully this makes the price more attractive as these sets (from any brand) can get a bit pricy. Looking forward to trying these out

Might be cheaper to buy initially, but usually smaller sizes mean more expensive per volume.
