WIP - finished! 2005-02-16 - By Katherine Rhodes
Back Well, I think finished! Thanks to some great lighting pointers from Richard K and the fantastic idea of newspaper for the base from Matt (below) I think it's finished - unless anyone has any other suggestions? I can't believe I didn't think of newspaper! When I was making models full time I had a separate room for it and used a couple of old tables so I guess I got spoilt! :-)
Many, many thanks to all that gave feedback and offered suggestions/advice, I really appreciate it.

Can I call it finished now?

Kate,
Just something I would do. When I was a kid I used to put models together all the time. I never did it straight on the table top. My mom would have killed me for getting glue, paint, etc. on the table. What about replacing the wooden texture with a texture of the "times". maybe a piece of newspaper? Then lighting wont be that bad to adjust, you wont really have to worry about the reflection of the table. The plastic is dull, so the lighting really shouldn't reflect from that either.
Just a suggestion. I have the creative mind, just can't model things in TS for crud. I keep telling myself that I have to keep practicing :)
