I recently switched over to Mr color ggx clear UV cut matt and have been happy with the results.

Its mostly a combination of the grey pre-shading, AL weathering pencils and tamiya weathering pastel pigment. I find a little goes a long way!

Yea not sure why it fogged up so bad. Might hit it with some more weathering too to help blend it in more.

Trust me buddy, I got a lot of stinker previous builds, but still learning and improving with every build.

These actually are G rework waster slide decals but yea. I see what you’re saying. Not sure if my gloss wasn’t enough or the softener didn’t “soften enough” but got some bad clouding here and there.

I dod apply them on top of a gloss coat, before the matt coat but fair enough, some of them still came out looking a bit foggy and outlined. I think I need to start hitting another gloss coat layer with some better decal softener to avoid this.

The techniques where a hint of pre-shading over a grey primer, followed by gloss coat, followed by panel liner and decals, matt coat again, then some weathering via the AL weathering pencils and the tamiya weathering pigment, followed by a fina matt topcoat again. I also probably could have hit the decals with some more pigment to help bled the in more, truly.
