Conway1979 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 This was my first attempt at trying to make something look weathered, I don't think it came out too bad. Have to get the Alley Rat done to go with it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGL Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Chris! Looking good, whatever your doing with the chrome is working, I tend to have a heavy hand and mine gets over done but this looks about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conway1979 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 Thanks Mark, all I did was use the Testors chrome spray paint, and thinned out some Testors rust. I can never get the chrome spray to look right when I use it, it has always looked weathered for me out of the can. How are things going? I kinda still wish I was on the ship. This desk job is so slow, but at least I get to work more on some models. Next year, that retirement letter is getting dropped though.

JTalmage Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Great looking! I am jealous. I have been looking for those blacktop warriors kits forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conway1979 Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Thanks Jesse, I lucked out on it as it was partially built. I have been getting some junkyard stuff so I can tear it down and work on rebuilding them. I'm slowly working on learning how to do some of the detail stuff so they can look a little more real and repair the other components. This is really the first time in 18 years that I have gotten the time to do more modeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDmitry Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I never even noticed that Dmitry, that's awesome. Read instruction carefully before you start thank you, you push me get mine from shelfes back/ Did you use "dirty" window and mirror decals& I was going to use but it looks too dirty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conway1979 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 I just used extremely thinned out brown acrylic paint, and went over a couple of times. I didn't like the way the decals looked for the windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
