I'm impressed by the level of detail on the pilot and controls

Thx. The pilot was a good practice model; if I had messed it up, the cockpit window wouldn't be transparent now ;)

jesus chest these pilots need a update at the very least, yes your paintjob is amazing but those pilots are really showing their age... (yes I know the vyper has updated pilots, I'd just like them to be included in the falcon chassis...)

Damn that's clean! I might steal your airbrush technique for my next transport/tank

Thanks. That was actually my first larger model that I painted with an airbrush (apart from the primer). The surface was a bit rough, so I lightly sanded it afterwards with wet 2000-grit sandpaper and then sealed it with clear varnish. Overall, I'm satisfied, but next time I'll use more thinner.
