Sparzanza Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Take photos of it outside with a foresty background and I will bet nobody can tell whether it is real or modelled... Mal_Belford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultmo Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Mal-- I believe, especially near the war's end, horses were often used to pull sleds, carts...whatever...this could be suggested/hinted at somewhere in your scene (hoof marks?)... I agree with Sparzanza...with the right backdrop, it would be pretty damn convincing... Greg Mal_Belford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Ill look in to it, yep natural daylight is the key with nice forest background. Greg, yeah you are right, ill look in to it on that detail with hof marks, subtle details that ad to the scenery. /Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal_Belford Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Allright.... After the Wash wind handwarm water and diishung liquid, to remove rsidue from the resin, the forks are in place and them taps to, as much as possible, as some notice, no preshade, yep ill skip it cause that redbrown is dark indeed, i will take of it with flory washes thru airbrush in later stache, it will bee rust, yep rust and worn this one....

Mal_Belford Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Thanks Peter, appriciate it. But now in scratching my head a bit....... What color. That dark yellow xf60 or more yellow or classic grey...... oh well.... ill come up with something..... /Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Yepp. some reinforcement has arrived.... Looking forward to try that prussian Blue, it got that grenish tint in it..... /Mal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Allright.... That color...i went for yelowish.... Didnt like XF60 it to dark, and not rifgt tone for my taste....since thar priper is dark to, so it gets darker...so...start mixing coctails instead, and this is what i came up with....i took the photo in natural light... And this is how it looks in natural light, it is the white ballance...using a iphone fork working pictures, but it give a hint where im going. Yea it would been darker if i havent made this mix....yep like that tone...soon chipping, but now let it dry yea under a lamp, totally different tone yeah.. And her it is that other box from verlinden, all that were squeezed inside that little box... yea dammages that could been avoided by proper packaging routines and if it cost to much ad a few buck instead and deliver nice quality items for us moddelers instead....look at that oilddrum sombody been niblbing on that..... Yep, that table i wont use, ill scratch my own, it looks more something from MC Donalds happymealbox... /Mal Edited June 24, 2014 by Mal_Belford Sparzanza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparzanza Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 You can "fix" the barrel by making it look like somebody has kicked around with it, making it all denty and chippy and stuff. I have full confidence in you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Belford Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Thanks Sparz, appriciate it, will patch em barrles, easy peasy... But now... Main chipping is done, yep, very rusty....since it is late war, it stood under open sky. rain, weather and so on....and no maintance in the end, just the necceray ones, yep got an idea for that chain i bought.... /Mal Sparzanza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
