Re: 1/35 X-wing
...check...
Painted this up before sealing up the fuselage. All the usual suspects. Hairspray, Vallejo paint for rust and then handpainted detail. I simply tried to vary sheen and colors a bit using chrome, gloss black, flat black, brown and a touch of brighter color. When removing with water/toothpick the chrome really comes off in like a 'blanket'.
I put a shot of the Badger cleaner there. I bought that yesterday at Micheals. It works fantastic for cleanup after spraying Vallejo, and for cleaning the tip during a session.

Re: 1/35 X-wing
Yeah reeeaaaaaal good. Love it, but I also like the primer overspray on the pic on the last page. Are you thinking of adding blaster marks/smoke? So it gives a bit of a story on the resoning behind replacing the panel?

Re: 1/35 X-wing
Thank you. Yes, hand painting with Model Air. Yup, smooth as silk.
Well she's primered up. I"ll leave this for a while. Time to build the 144 Falcon.
Why wait?
I do the build for this one here: http://www.scalemodeladdict.com/forum/index.php/topic,4000.0.html
and once that's done I'll be back here. It's all good! ;D

Re: 1/35 X-wing
Thanks guys. Appreciated.
Started painting Coran's X-Wing. Been a while since I painted and thought I should get painting...
Not much of an update. Just trying to get the feel for painting in the panels. First a light grey and then white with just a hint of grey.
I like to paint the bottom of the wings first.
