My Land Speeder Tornado squadron is done - and two days before the deadline. I'm just a little freaked out by that!

Please excuse the crappy photos again! I decided not to do anything to the bases of the Speeders - they aren't really supposed to be there when you think about it. I tried adding some battle damage, varying it on a each Speeder and trying to keep to a theme but it isn't that visible in the photos. I also did some weathering which went OK but I think I was a little too haphazard with it. I did make a discovery though - the first Speeder took quite a while and then I realised that, instead of base-coating the bottom in black, then painting it in gunmetal and finally drybrushing it black, it was a hell of a lot quicker to just drybrush gunmetal directly onto the black basecoat. So much quicker! D'oh! Overall though, I'm satisfied with all three though I would definitely paint the crew before assembly next time - it was a nightmare trying paint them in the cockpit.

Any way, to the photos:
