Wackyracer Posted April 6, 2019 Author Share Posted April 6, 2019 So we've finally got to putting some paint down! Mr metal primer for the pe bits followed by gloss black for the decal side and Matt black for the front side. Decal applied and gunze clear coat on top. Front panel with Mr paint dull interior, bronze interior and standard interior. Floor given a coat of Mr paint white aluminium followed by Matt clear. AK scratch/worn effects then zinc primer and dull green /standard interior green. Tooth pick and stiff brush with water. Panel test fit Back plate is not attached. Just to see the effect. Dark brown wash to add some depth/grime. Pretty happy with the overall effect. Added more paintwork to the panel and need to add more details to console etc. BradG, Anthony in NZ, TorbenD and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Wow, terrific! Shaping up nicely, need to start hunting around for this kit Wackyracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wackyracer Posted April 8, 2019 Author Share Posted April 8, 2019 thanks Brian Looking at my pics I can now see I need a 'reverse' paint method for the worn floor in the radio room. The worn parts are in the grooves rather than on top of the runners. Dull interior green first, then chipping fluid, zinc chromate and white aluminium. That should then give the wear to the top not the bottom. Learning new stuff everyday. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
