Just when you thought it was safe...another ESB paint up!

So you aren't going to put a final layer of sealant on top, to help protect it from more unwanted weathering caused by handling?

Possibly after the weathering stages are applied, depending on if it's airbrushed or pastels; pastels then a clear coat obviously but all my previous paint ups have been airbrushed weathering so maybe no sealant...
 
Added the final layer to the back, possibly a smidge too green, i can hopefully deepen this tone with weathering. The wire wool rub down shows the colour below in places which works well, also started to add some of the finer scratches. Next onto the kill stripes...

Just added the kill stripes, some powder burns to the dent and weathering around the rim. Detail in these areas was liquid masked to bring out certain colours...The final 4-5 kill stripes had a gloss coat added on top, the first 3-4 were attacked with wire wool to thin the colour down...
I've also started to add the finer details; using the end of a self propelling pencil (?) pushing or dragging the hollow nib gives some great results!
