Der Grüne Punkt Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 Looking very good. One of these days I want to build an exotic (non-French and non-Isreali) SEA Mirage just like this one! After going through your build and seeing your recent weathering I am more intrigued. I can't seem to find color photos of Argentine SEA Mirages though, do you have some sites that I could study? Also are there other Mirage operators that use the SEA camo besides Argentina? Belgium is the only other operator I know of that fits the bill. Exotic is such a relative term :P, I would say not-so-boring, regarding SEAC painted Mirages there's a lot to choose from, Chile, Venezuela, Peru, etc., well maybe not Peru, I plan to build most of them. Get this book, there you have lots of nice pictures plus the history of each aircraft on each air force. . Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joel_W Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Der Grune Punkt, Nicely done weathering. Your Dot technique is simple, yet very effective. I tend to work more in layers with washes and a few filters. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Der Grüne Punkt Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) Thanks Shernak! Der Grune Punkt, Nicely done weathering. Your Dot technique is simple, yet very effective. I tend to work more in layers with washes and a few filters. Joel Thanks, it's a technique I seen somewhere, can't recall where. I found oils most easy to work with, most forgiving, and the most progressive, as you can add as many layers as you want and work knowing that you can take all the time you need, their main drawback are it's stronger point, they dry very slowly, but what I do to seal the job even when oils are drying is to apply the varnish, this will make the varnish not to dry as quickly as it should, but it will protect the weathering.

Aigore Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Coming together nicely, like the weathering :D I to use dot-weathering from time to time....gives some really nice rain/dirt streaks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Der Grüne Punkt Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 I been playing a lot with weathering, now it's dirty as hell On the bench looks nice, so I decided to take it ouside and with a better camera takes some stills to see what's what. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
