wow! you do models?!

the rust is pretty good. did you mean for it to not have texture but have the effect of weathering?

aweeesooommme.

check some of mine out if you have time.

oh, I was just learning how to do some proper weathering on this one. Every model is a new experiment, and takes a lot of research and I learn something new with each one.

Enamel paints never worked for me, and it was impossible to get a smooth coat using those cheap brushes. That's the reason I've re-bought nearly every model I had in my childhood and did them over again

Great job on these

Oh that must have been a lot of work! We are currently working on a tug boat, and making a straight water line proved to be a far more difficult task than I imagined

Xantec In reply to venusmantrap [2008-10-28 21:33:59 +0000 UTC]

to get a straight water line, as boat modeller, one trick I used was to place the boat in a stand so she sat on a level surface, got a block of wood, drilled a hole for a pencil to sit in, making sure the fit was snug, then having sprayed the primer color down first (also doubling as he anti-fouling color), I used the pencil and block to do the line.

once that was done, down went the masking tape

worked a charm!

very nice detail, if only my boats turned out that good!

what paints did you use?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

venusmantrap In reply to Xantec [2008-10-22 09:25:45 +0000 UTC]

Revell's acrylics. I tried enamel a while ago but found them too stinky, too messy, too icky And too slow to dry.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Xantec In reply to venusmantrap [2008-10-22 21:36:17 +0000 UTC]

never used revel's stuff.

I have used humbrol's enamel when I built Airfix planes as a lad, however for the boats that I sail. I use plasticote spray enamel for the hull and large areas of the superstructure, usually topped off with clear coat acrylic.

the little survey sub that I had operating off the back of Nord Icelandia used games workshop's Citadel brand.

again, nice work

Revell has nice models, and very understandable how-to's, along withthe nifty little difficulty system, so you don't end up with a model that is way over your head.
