Ok! one in colour [ATTACH]88528[/ATTACH]

Now that is one beautiful scruffy looking Stuka , the way you have got that paint to look like it's just been slapped on is very well done even down to the worn sections revealing the true paint job underneath

Excellent Polux

[Guest]

Thanks guys

Anyway I'm afraid...I think,maybe, she looks so "white"....

My first idea wasn't this...and now I have doubts

[Guest]

No doubts Polux ,she's a beaut !

[Guest]

The problem are the photos as reference!!! Each one is different and I don't exactly which one to "copy"

[Guest]

Hi friends

The Stuka is finished.

Anyway I will continue with this thread posting all the final steps....

After to add the dark green, is time to paint the olive grey colour. And the chipping effect as well.

After the painted camouflage I added a very, very dark green wash (enamel).

I used an acrylic white grey colour, thinned with some drops of water, to paint the main winter camo. And then I did the chipping effect again. Once dry, was time for the new tip discover on this build I used this paper as a mask!! And I painted with aged white colour over.

Then I added another wash (enamel), a green/grey colour

Advices and mistakes.

Mistake: My mistake was, after applied the dark camouflage, I masked it wrong.... over the dark colour about 0,5 mm (just to safe the light colour was close the dark one, not silver between...) Went I did the chipping effect the lines have appears.

Advice: If you have followed this thread, you must see I don’t work with varnish. So the best form to apply a pin wash (for me) is: Take a clean brush and humidify with white spirit. Then “paint” the lines or the rivets. Just wait a moment and then add the dark wash with a very fine brush. If you add so much paint, just wait about 3 or 5 minutes and with another clean brush with white spirit clean the lines. The best product on these moments is the enamels!! If you use an acrylic wash the thinner can damage your previous work and the oils are so slowly to dry... with the enamels and white spirit you don’t will have any kind of problem.
