Iain Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Weathering - model undercoated silver, painted and then scratched through with pan scourer and scalpel. Gear on, final tweaks done - mat coat, exhaust stains, oil leaks and masking removal tomorrow methinks... Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.Wolf Grant Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Sorry if this seems a silly question, but did you undercoat the whole thing in silver or just the areas where you wanted to do the wear and chipping? Obant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 On this one - the whole thing - Tamiya rattle can - followed by an acrylic gloss coat barrier (in this case Quickshine) followed by Aeromaster acrylic colour. HTH Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgem37 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Love that edgework. Sincerely, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Thanks Mark - she looks better 'in the plastic' so to speak. Have tried to match the level of weathering shown on images of the original aeroplane... Oil stains to be added. Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Excellent, Your weathering is 100% up my alley. Subtle yet noticeably there, very, very nice. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Some of your images appear to have gone AWOL on this one, Iain. Any chance of restoring them? Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 Sorry Kev, All the images from old builds (not just this one) were hosted on my old 32SIG website which I've pulled. At some point I'll try and get the photos live again - but not a priority just now... Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There appears to be a bug with the article count for related content - should say 7, but only says 1. I'll have to look into that.
