dmthamade Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Really like the results you get with Maskol. I've been using rubber cement when i wanted to have chipped paint, i'll try your method next time i need the effect on a TPS scheme. I think using the Maskol/rubber cement gives you much more control than the salt effect does. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancherello Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 hello time for an update ! THe painting and weathering process is still in progress. It has been all about airbrushing light grey, dark blue hues, grime grey and liquid masking, foam fabric used as a random template and the Daco book used a a Holly Guide. My guideline was first to set high contrast with light and dark hues and then come back to a more balanced finish by using more and more medium hues. My lighting was done with Tamiya white, darkening was done with midnight and medium blues ( WW2 Navy hues ); and grime was about Gunze H317/301/79/77 By now I still have to balance my shades on FS36320 ( nose flanks area ), and weathering the engine nacelles with oily/brownish colors will start. ( Or maybe tails, i dont know yet, actually, because I'm also waiting for a spare Zotz decal sheet as I failed a NAVY marking in an excess of stupid ! Luckily I found one, that's the main thing. red baron, F`s are my favs, Shaka HI and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancherello Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Well, i can`t do that kind of weathering Looks tremedously outstanding! Surreal indeed! Of course you can ! This is just about working with hignly thinned colors, almost tinted thinner, actually. Try and try and try ! And as these are very thin touches of color, if there's a fail I use a medium micromesh as an eraser and give another try !

chuck540z3 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Amazing replication of the real deal! Question: How do you remove the liquid mask? Rub off or wash with water? Cheers, Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancherello Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Hello and thank you! I rubb the mask off with my finger. It dries almost instantly when set on small quantities with a foam pad and its removed as quickly. Moreover i work with drops of gunze and lot of pure alcohol for fine work so it dries in seconds as well. All in all this allows instant and under inspiration work. chuck540z3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancherello Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 I'd just add to check the compatibility between your liquid mask and paint. For example, i think that Humbrol Maskol and Gunze aqueous are nit a matching pair. I use Mr Hobby green Neo Sol ! stusbke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
