Corel Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) First of all, please forgive my English. It will be 1/72 and this idea is very old. Sometime over a year ago, my friend and me figuried out a non-common dog-fight flight display, with TIE Fighter, and X wing. The idea was; the TIE will be at Luftwaffe scheme, and the X wing will be RAF scheme. My friend was ill a long time, but the idea still in my mind. Now here is the new idea. I'll paint the X wing in RAF scheme around the Battle of Britain, and I'll paint the Spitfire at Red 3 scheme frome the Star Wars - A new hope. I found Mark II mask set a year before, that what I want to use. But, when I want to buy a 72 scale Mk II, I did not found. Hello Mr Murphy. But I have the new Airfix Mk Va. A little changes, and it will be good for Mark II. I have to make some upgrade on the Airfix kit, but nothing fancy. There will be some figures. Two pilotes, and one civilian. The civilian is movie director. First of all, I made the base. This is a Costal Kit airfield. And this will be the composition. On the lower left corner will stand the director. But the base was 2D. I scratch the base, and made a heavy wahs on the lines with Vallejo blue wash, and it get some light wash everywhere. Maybe I'll use some pigments at the end ... I dont know yet ... I hope, you like it! Edited March 20, 2018 by Corel 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corel Posted April 12, 2018 Author Share Posted April 12, 2018 Made some pre-shading-ish. This technique is the mix of the pre-shading, and black basing and black-and-white. I used three diferences gray, and white. I aplyied these colors with low pressure, highly dilluted, and a micro worm stlye. I used H&S Infinity airbrush, with a 0.15 needle. The under colors are done. I know, it is very hard to see it, but beliwe me, you can see it with your eyes. This is a good base for any weathering technique, especially when you working with acrilycs only. The whole proces was 4 hours. This marbel coats, and the under-colors. First coat of gray. This is important. You have to start with the DARKEST color. I think this is a good base for the black aircrafts, or sci-fi things too. All colors are done. As you see, you can made pre-weathering-highlighting-something. Okay, this is the base color. I think, the light of my desk lamps, are very shine. It is very hard to see, but there it it. Now try another light-up mode. Here is the base. And the end result ... ehhh ... I hope you see it. Thanks for watching! I hope you like it! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) These look Great 👍 For future reference if you do more of these. I would put the RAF fin flash on the nose of the X-wing. Edited April 19, 2018 by Corsairfoxfouruncle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corel Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 Now the MosonShow are over (there was more than 2400 models around the world, including Bayin Wu's 1/6 scale metal King Tiger, and t-34). I don't earn nothing with this idea, but I know, there is a lot of mistakes in the models. But it was great show again! I made a good quality pictures, so I'll show you soon.
