Hej Fanch, you are truely an artist my friend! I just love your applications of colouring, weathering, and overall perfect work!! Just great mate, and I do appreciate you sharing your tips and tricks with us! I would like to ask... what did you use to rivet the beast? Is that the footprints of Rosie? I just love your work mate!

Cheers

Alan

Hi Alan

thanks a lot mate ! it's a pleasure to share techniques around here, although I regret I lack time to be more active on LSP board.

 

I've used the rosie on areas where I want the rivetting not to be too obvious. On the front section and along corrugated panels, I used the MDC tool where the rivetting will be far more highlighted.

 

all the best

hi there and best wishes for the new year !

 

time for a little update:

 

the white cross showing two different white shades:

shading was done using liquid mask to get a combination of hard and soft edge patches:

then a gloss coat, decals and washes:

I kept on weathering the markings and the airframe:

working on subassemnlies with the skids that need a bit of shortening and the typical nozzle weathering:

hello huys

many thanks for all your kind words ! they're much appreciated !

 

weathering is still going on using pastel dusts fixed with Tamiya thinner a mists of flat varnish:

 

Any chance you could describe that weathering process in more detail Fanch? I for one would love to know more!
