I've never used a make-up sponge to paint castings.  I'll have to try that on my next project.

Another build underway. I've run out of words to describe your talent in structure building.

So, I'll just say fantastic!

Thanks, Tom! Another interesting kit from FOS. I don't know how Doug does it.  ;D

For most of the detail castings I use brushes although I do use the sponges to create some rust effects on the vents, 55-gallon drums, garbage cans, etc. I find that dabbing them with a craft store acrylic Burnt Sienna and having the sponge nearly dry works very well.

Glad to have you following along, Dave!  :D
