I used the multiple resin pour technique: 1 for the base, 1 for the Tiger, and 1 for the Mosquito

I have a lot of 1:285 GHQ armour I used in the 90's for micro armour tabletop games and I nearly went blind painting those tiny tanks. I could not imagine paining this level of detail and recalling at this scale 1:700... amazing!

Thanks folks! Rui - it may be psychological (and extravagant), but I just got some God Hand brushes and they seem to give at least +1 scale degree of accuracy😉
