looks at some new terrain products, which use space age technology!
All joints were painted with the original Steel color. The heatsink vents were painted using Reaper Master Scorched Metal. The guns were painted using Reaper Master Gunmetal Blue.
The battle-damaged areas were painted with Vallejo Smoke (939).
Now, I hit the whole mini again with the same heavy black Magic Wash as before, but avoiding the areas that were painted in the previous 2 steps.
Next was to go in and - using the Rust paint full-strength mixed with 2 drops of FW Antelope Brown (222) ink - paint rust areas, like the run down the front of the leg.
This is one of those sections where the photos don't really show all of the changes.
- go back over the areas that I applied the rust, with the Antelope Brown ink. I laid this down where it was actually wider than the original rust area
- went back with a thinned rust, and painted the areas back in
- drybrush small areas with Silver (again, I think it is an Armory paint)
- drybrush the detail areas with their corresponding colors, and apply a very light black wash
Painted the base Muddy Brown using Reaper Master paints. Hit it with a layer of matte finish. Realized that I was running out of time, so skipped to the final photos. All that was left was some decals to finish the base and the cockpit.
The base was done to give the feel of a muddy, toxic field. - something I would not want to go wading thru.
