shark64 Posted February 11, 2018 Author Share Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) Oliver, if you ever do a step by step clinic on your painting methods, I'll be front and center on it. Amazing how lifelike you make this all look Matt Hi Matt. U coming down for valley con? Does this paint process help? I only used 4 colors. Dark ghost grey, brown and white and green. Still have to do a wash and drybrushing Edited February 11, 2018 by shark64 chukw, F`s are my favs, Shawn M and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Wonderful step by step. Definitely helpful. I'm going to try to come down for ValleyCon, but it depends on my work schedule. Getting to wander around the Petersen Museum is enough of a reason to go down to LA, and another model contest is always good Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Paxton Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) Sir! Looking awesome As a crew member on Helicopters, I can say you are doing a full on excellent job! my two cents about weathering.... Ruder pedals and the floor just aft of them would be worn down from constant use....the cockpit is often referred to as the office and the floor of the office was the hardest place to keep clean, often worn and chipped paint from flight boots constantly scuffing and moving on..... the cargo area.....the edges of the floor by the door would have worn paint from thousands of entries and exits. sometimes you would get spray paint and cover the exposed metal and sometimes that paint wasn't the right color or to new (hadn't faded) often multiple applications create a buildup of paint..... Again GREAT JOB Dan Edited February 15, 2018 by Dan Paxton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
