Now here's a question for all you airbrusher's out there, so my tiger 1 is in a base coat of dunklegelb do I A- airbrush the shading on the base coat the add the camo stripes, B-do it when I have added the camo stripes, C- airbrush no shading and just do washes / dry brushing etc? In shading I mean highlighting panel edges/ recesses with a darker colour etc. Cheers guys

There is no one method to it. People have their own ideas about what works for them. There's plenty good videos on Youtube (Mig Jiminez is always a good source) and Flory models site about this kind of thing.

Like bill said...there's no true method Hoob.......the best method is the one you develop for yourself ...doing it first and putting camo over it will result in covering the undertones you put on ...doing it after covers up the camo....so you see you have to develop the skill of "balancing"...and not be afraid of touching up...as you will always have to follow up a few times

...just make sure you don't apply any markings till you are satisfied
