If the Hydra looks slightly dusty on some pics, especially on the base, that is due to the varnish I used. I bought a can of ArmyPainter Antishine sealant and gotta say it sucks. It creates a matte gray layer on the modell and I honestly almost cried when my beloved Hydra was damaged like that. It took me weeks to paint it and just seconds to ruin it with sealant!
