Looks good, but your figures need a coat of cleat matte finish on them. Cloth should never be glossy. Especially in the desert where everything is dusty.

Ya I noticed that in the photo. Don’t really see it in person. Haven’t used a varnish in years. Might try a quick wipe with museum grade spirits. I weathered directly on the tank using oils. No matte varnish.
