Peter Browne Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I have a 1/35 Panther G that has received an oil paint filter over camouflage. I am quite happy with it. The gloss varnish before the oil filter darkened the colour scheme; the oils a bit more so. I just want to lighten everything now, say by 5%. What would people recommend. I don't think a white oil filter would work. A matt varnish might... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef N. Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 A matt varnish will usually lighten it a bit. You could also try a light airbrush dusting of a Buff/Deck Tan colour to lighten and add a hint of weathering?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will try a white oil filter first, which I have tested on part of the tank with some success. Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
