We now have a good gloss finish to work with, so using Mig Dark Wash and a 000 pointed brush we can start the process of adding shadows.
With a clean brush dipped into Odour Free Thinner which was then applied to the surface to be worked on. Then taking the pointed brush dip into the well shaken dark wash and remove most of the liquid on the side of the bottle. I then proceeded to apply a spot of the wash on each rivet, raised detail, panel lines and the episcope glass bottoms only, this is called a pin wash. If the application was too much it was allowed to dry a little and then using a damp clean brush the excess was removed and feathered into the panel.

Using the magnification tool the model was checked over and some of the shadow was found to be a little light. Another coat was needed, so after drying this was carried out in the same manner as the first application.
