rom Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Hello! So! finally finished! After an almost 3 years stand by. I used some aftermarket: - Eduard photoetch - Master barrels - Legend bays and folding sets - Werner wings stencil decals - Reedoak figure paints are Mr color laquer c308 and mrp 105. Weathering with oils, mostly mig oilbrushers. Again I felt very frustrated with the figurine painting. I tried again the uncle Nightshift hack with black primer, zenithal white and filters. But... Again I did not succeed. The base color are acrylics from vallejo but I tried to paint the highlights and shadows with oils. And I think I liked to do that way. The build will be detailed in a 2024 edition of french magazine Cocardes. Now some pics! Romain Quote Link to post Share on other sites
