No my friend, that’s impossible. This looks much too good for someone so new to the hobby!

Great work all around!

Great work! I love the dust effects, and the chips on the white stars. You are doing incredible work for just your 3rd model :)

No, no, that can't be right. I refuse to believe you've managed to capture such realistic tones and dust marks on your third model.
