Mick5s Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hey All Just got all my stuff in and practiced some painting methods and whatnot on these first two models. These are my first pretty much ever and definitely the first weathering. On the roof of the Impala I tried a salt and hairspray technique, but until my airbrush comes it is very hard to get good results. That also goes for most of the other painting too. The salt gets in the brush and then it's all downhill from there. I think the hood on the Impala came out nicely, but the rest of it could be much better-- same with the Bel Air. But hey, it's my first try! practice makes perfect! Tell me what you think! & any suggestions! The tarp / car cover on the Bel Air still needs painting!!!

martinfan5 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I think it lookd great, you are off to a great start, I think it takes more to get the rusty look then to do shiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David G. Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 I think it lookd great, you are off to a great start, I think it takes more to get the rusty look then to do shiny Yes, I find much more of a challenge in producing a damaged, rusted or distressed model than one with a shiny show-room finish. These are a couple good examples of balanced and believable rust, weathering and damage, excellent work! David G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
