Hi gang,
I have a fair idea how to pre-shade but have never used this technique before. I intend on using the pre and post shading techniques for the first time on my M113ACAV which is my second model but have no idea at all on the post shading procedure, any help or advise would be greatly apprieciated.

Might i add that this is my first day as a member of armorama and it is by far the best and most helpful modeling site on the net.

Hey Wah76:

I've used James Blackwells formula for post shading and really found it to be good. You can read an article about it here:

Post Shading by James Blackwell

Hope this helps.

Thanks john17,
Very excited about the finished effect of that post shading technique. I just hope my airbrush skills are upto the task coz im like that effect a lot and the fact that theres no need to wash or dry brush. Im trying it.

Thanks again for your help.
