belugawhaleman Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Working on this now: A Trumpy 1/35 Soviet PT-76. So far an occasionally frustrating kit with some very tiny parts. I found myself on my knees searching for tiny parts that I thought I'd never find again. I did find them! Anyway, I think It'll turn out Ok. I've been spending a lot of time filling some holes for cable ends I decided I won't use. The string provided, well, I didn't like the looks of it. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Progress is slow on the Hellcat, due to drying times and lots of 1/1 scale modelling on the house . The basic paintjob is done so far, this time with Gunze colors, a first for me. They sprayed well onto the 3D enhancing black and white base coat, which still shows a little. After applying the three camo colors, I used heavy thinned variants of them for panel accentuation and a little shading and lighting. Then I added the wings and tail, because it was way easier to apply the camo freehand, without the wings. Next will be an oil treatment as a pre weathering and to get the blues a bit more vibrant and then it's decaling / wet transfer time.

These are weird times and we should look and care for the people which are important to us and when there is time left, have some FUN.

DocRob Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Amigos, I lave oil colors. As longer I use them, the more I like them. I applied a deep blue, a medium blue and some light bluish grey in dots, emphasizing panels, light and shadow vaguely. Then I spread the oils with thousands of little dabs, to get a slightly uneven coverage. The synthetic saw brush was very carefully dampened wit fast drying thinner from time to time. Dabbing wise, I built up some fine layers of paint, with the base color still shining through, but got what I wanted an accentuated and more vibrant color rendition. Cheers Rob Ughhhhh The final result looks better 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
