CAL Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 (edited) color besides black, airbrushed, mask off areas, BMF and ink washes goes a long long way Edited November 26, 2008 by CAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VW Dave Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 If you're making an interior look 'less than perfect,' chalk pastels and textured paints can be your friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sak Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 It really seams to help if you have kits that have seperate peices for the door panels as most nowadays are. But of course alot of kits still have these one piece tubs. Just get some thin tamiya masking tape and practice masking off areas. If you are doing an older style two tone interior, usually they have some sort of embossed chrome trim in between. Bare metal foil this trim first before any painting, then mask off the different parts, paint them then gently rub the paint off the raised parts with the bare metal foil. And also use semi-gloss paint in its intended to be a vinyl interior or flat and use semi-gloss clearcoat over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
