dahut Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Simply unbelievable. What a superbly rendered finish. That is what sets a great model apart. The plastic is just a canvas - the rendering of the finished product is the key. I see a lot of models on ebay billed as "pro built," implying the seller knows his stuff. But they can take a lesson from you. Technically they are correct, and they are usually tidy looking. But you - you are different. Not only do you know how to build a model, but you know how to create a sum that is greater than the parts. That is the mark of an artist. I love the wheels attached to the base. Very clever.

Janissary Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Wow. This is so beautiful. Congratulations! I think I understand the hairspray technique but could you please explain how you did the brown oily patches? Is it the brush/filter technique or was it done with an airbrush? It looks so nice.

Kamil Feliks Sztarbała Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 oily stains and patches are made with two ways- bigger one are painted with middle sized brush and MIG's dark wash (used as a transparent paint). Thin patches are painted with tensocrome OIL, with thin brush. I don't like to use airbrush for oily patches- when you are blowing with air on paint you don't have full control about its spreading on surface and shape of patches. thin brush and some practice is much better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nesher Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Your work is awe-inspiring The weathering is superb, the figure faboulous... wow, simply wow! PS: bought some hairspray today Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kamil Feliks Sztarbała Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 About hairspray- be careful when you are going to apply water based paint over it- if it will be too 'dry', there will be a risk of paint 'crackling'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
