plasmahal Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 **Update** - Base Colours Part Three (Complete), I had to go back and then finish off with the XF-84, dark iron on the torpedo tubes. All sealed now ready to start the weathering. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhatter Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 this is really starting to look fantastic. Great paint work! Looking forward to seeing how you weather it That Tamiya Dark Iron is a really versatile colour isn't it? I use it a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plasmahal Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 **Update** - Chipping and Weathering Part One, OK, I have tried my fist attempt at using sponges to do chipping etc. Seemed to be ineffective at first but needs to built up to get the desired effect. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plasmahal Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 **Update** - Chipping and Weathering Part Two.With the F-15I build now done, it's back to the Star Wars tank.Progressed the chipping effects as before. I then did a panel line pin wash using W&N burnt umber oils. Around the engine areas i used MIG Abteilung 502 engine grease. A little clean up with a cotton bud soaked in turps. Then did some metal edging with a sponge and vallejo model air silver. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madhatter Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 It's great to see you picking this one up again Plasmahal. Love what you've done so far. Your metal paint work is extremely convincing MH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasmahal Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) **Update** - Side Guns and Final touches.OK, been working on this to get finished before the end of June.As usual I forgot something, the side guns. I didn't paint and weather them at the same time as everything else... So cracked on with those over the weekend. Then it was adding the final touches like smoke effects around guns and torpedo tubes. That just leaves the base to finish off and some aerials to sort out.
