Cheers, Craig I used styrene rods. they were primed black , given a glossy coat and painted with silver metalizer then rubbed with a cotton ball to give it shine. brahman104 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgem37 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) Nice line-work. This is what I see: 2 tone grey matches almost everything in one manner or another. The brown one is a complete contrast, moving into the cool-warm contrast between ground and figure (helicopter) arena. The third falls into the light-dark contrast category. The 2 tone grey body is a neutral solution, will be visually absorbed by the base as they are similar colors, and will fall away, the purpose of camouflage, leaving the detail as the highlight, as it is dissimilar in color to the figure and ground. From a color concept perspective, this is what the detail will look like against the solid grey ground, because this ground is a solid light grey ground, as well. This is a visually neutral solution between the figure and ground. I like the cool/warm 2-tone. It's a more dynamic solution against what is already there than the other 2. Everything else fairly matches the base and therefore is one with the base (white, yellow, and grey) and will recede compared to the 2 tone brown, which will stand out and become a center of interest. Anyway, for what it's worth, this is my take. Best of luck with your decision. Sincerely, Mark Edited May 28, 2019 by dodgem37 chukw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
