hi,

model painted

some chipping and scratches were done

weathering is next

enjoy

painting was conducted in the following order

1. very thin white enamel under-coat

2. very thin grey/black over-coat

3. vary thin base color, Vallejo IDF color

the model was left for 1 hour to dry, then the third layer (the base color) was diluted with scotch whisky to soften the layer, then scratched with the fine tip of a needle and mini brush

this technique is to mimic scratch depth

next is a layer of clear in order to isolate all previous colors, this way the weathering phase can take place over the clear layer and prevent capillary movement blending of the first 3 layers with the weathering washes

enjoy

hi,

tracks fully completed tonight

idler, wheels and sprockets are in progress

greasing nipples were added on to the wheels

clear base layer is up next

images will follow this post ASAP

enjoy

I can't see the pics...

hi

they are on the way, I will upload them in a moment

cheers friend

Thanks Guilbert, looking forward to see them.
First time I come across using scotch whisky during modelling (other than consuming, which can have a pretty negative effect on the results anyway...) - was it blended or single malt?

hi,

whisky works just fine
I use johnnie walker usually as I drink and work

here are a few images of tonight's work

cheers budies

hi,

once the weathering colors have dried, I will tone it down to a bare minimum with a brush, this way the residue will not seem bulky on the 1/35 scale

also, the upper and most exposed areas to light will be highlighted by use of the same base color, but with a slightly lighter color, paint will be very diluted and by adding a few drops of yellow and white (ratio: 2 drops yellow - 5 drops white)

you all have a nice weekend



cheers friends
