do you paint it after or before building the model
how would i get an air brush? and how much do they cost?
“brown pencil to add some rust…” Planes are built from aluminum, dude.
What I feel is wrong about this “getting a realistic look” approach to weathering, that seem to be so modern now, is that “realistic look” is a subjective matter of knowledge. To me, A lot of models look wrong. WW2 planes having finishes like a modern, worn navy carrier planes, or a muddy, dusty tank. WW2 planes had life spans of weeks to maximum a couple of months.
video’s like this annoy me, he is not a real modeller he uses all after market things even his mask’s are bought yeah he does a fantastic job but it is just to show himself off. real model makers experiment, make there own mask’s and just have fun with it. i think he takes it a bit far. build straight from the box and make your own masks dare you
@113stDFX9900 Very good advice!
it takes time
youll get better and develop your own technique
and remember its a model you can do whatever you want

What is commonly used is artists OIL colours from a tube, thinned down to a watery consistency with turpentine / paint thinners. Various shades of browns mixed with a little black (for a grimier look) added, is widely used among both airplane and armour modellers. -Good luck!
RUST on a aluminium (aluminum – US can´t spell!) airplane? -That has to be a first! 😀
is it big
your good as
thanks uncle brett
Aah, I use Zinc Chromate for the insides of wheel wells, but I never thought about airbrushing when it’s still attatched to the sprue!
