ontwerpplus Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hello everybody, After watching all those great models and tutorials on this forum, i wanted to try spraypainting instead of painting. So i bought a can of tamiya TS-1 red brown as a base colour and the tamiya TS-6 matt black as top colour. Furthermore i used maskol to create the effect of rust. This is the first time i worked with aerosol cans and maskol. But i am very happy with the result till now! Feedback and comments are very much welcome! The engine is painted by hand with revell lightblue and aluminium: And the body: I will update as i am going along, thanks for watching.

Modlbldr Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Looks like you're off to a great start. I've never used Maskol before. Does it spray on? I've used rubber cement for the same effect. You should try spraying a light coat of Dulcoat on and then sprinkling baking soda on that before your base coat of brown. Gives it a bit of rust texture under the paint. Go lightly with this effect. It's easy to overdo. Keep it up. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontwerpplus Posted September 15, 2012 Author Share Posted September 15, 2012 Thanks Tom, Maskol is a kind of liquid putty, you can brush it on or use a sponge. I have some rust solution which i am trying out now. Mayby i'll use that Will try the baking soda though. Thanks for the tip! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontwerpplus Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 a little bit of progress.. I added some detail to the rust and dull coated the rest with some revell rust and a sponge. I darkened the rustmarks with some revell leatherbrown. Thanks for watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shardik Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Hi Michel, This is looking pretty good. I had my doubts, at first, but as I watch your work developing I fin myself more and more impressed. Your techniques have definitely given me food for thought. Lead on!

ontwerpplus Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Some more progress I've been working on the truck bed. I've used some wood and T shaped styrene between the wood. I washed the wood with revell leather brown and after that i sanded it to make it look more worn out. The styrene has been painted aluminum.

ontwerpplus Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 And some more progress I made the truck bed and it has been painted. Still needs more detailing.. So does the rest of the car. But it is coming along nicely. Added some gunk to the inside, still needs some paint Testfitting: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
