Flyingfortress Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Just finished this V-100 Commando and thought it would make nice company for my M-1117 Guardian. I forgot to remove the liquid mask from the vision ports and I'm too lazy to re-take the pictures. It was painted with Italeri paint and weathered with Tamiya mud and sand pigments.

Ro-Gar Hobbies Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Great job Sean, they both look great. I didn't know Italeri made paint? Robert Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyingfortress Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Great job Sean, they both look great. I didn't know Italeri made paint? Robert It's pretty new. I received an email a few months back asking if I want to be a Guinea pig. It's pretty good paint. Very, very think and when you add the thinner it remains thick but still sprays at 20psi. After it dries it's a bit delicate, scratching off easier then Tamiya brand. I also found Italeris idea of OD differs a bit from Tamiyas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ro-Gar Hobbies Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 huh, interesting. So its acrylic paint? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyingfortress Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yep, acrylic it is and for some reason, no smell at all hardly any overspray. It seems to sprays super fine lines better then Tamiyas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ro-Gar Hobbies Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Good to know, will have to try some when they are out on the market. Robert Quote Link to post Share on other sites

arkhunter2002 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Very beautiful! Those guardians are some pretty nice vehicles... Good job with the OD on the -100 as well. Take care, Austin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
