Hi,

After my first post, I'd thought I'd show you guys some pics of the first camo-coat. I sprayed the whole model matt black first - after this I coloured it using Testor Panzer Gelb.

This is the result!







For the diorama:


On the photographs, the coat looks much more even - in reality, the pre-shading show through VERY nicely and I am much impressed by the quality of my airbrush (I have it only a week, Iwata HP-B Plus, and it is such a difference compared to my 1st airbrush (Badger 150))

Tell me what you think

Sidney

Great start ...looks very well done so far...I know what you mean about the airbrush ...Since I got my Tamiya Superfine (made be Iwata) it just brings things to a different level..I know I can't take all the credit ..except for buying it ! Keep up the good work ...Looks like you are doing an Ardennes Dio with this one eh!

Looks great so far. Base coat of Dunklegelb came out nice. Figures look good too. Are you planning to use Hornet heads for them ??

Keep up the good work. and send us more pics as you move along.

Cheers !

no, as this was a first try - I will just use the standard Dragon heads... they came out pretty nice, though!

will take pics after each step of weathering

thanks
