 Interesting results. I'm still trying to decide how to approach the buildings. I've primed all the bits with Vallejo grey primer but I think I'm going to leave this on the back burner as I have TOO MANY figures waiting to be painted and at the rate new units are released, I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever catch up.

Does anyone else find the buildings a tad wobbly? The pieces from the building I got with Zverograd is very shaky. I've had to do some gluing on the two halves that make each piece to keep them together properly.

Well Done!  I may throw a few washes on and age/weather the stone a bit, but that looks really great. 

I had bought a can of textured paint, but was ultimately too cowardly to go ahead with it.  You have opened my eyes sir.

Did you overcoat it with anything to preserve the finish?  Is it holding up well?

It was sprayed straight on with no sealer and is still there, no chips or flaking.  Was going to weather them myself but have not plucked up the courage yet as Its not something I have done before, I did do a black wash on the red on some of the other buildings though.

Yeah, the joints are pretty crap really some stupidly tight and others really loose.
