shabbadoo Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) That was just for illustrative purposes. Make the bend as wide/thin as needed for it to look good. Edited April 17, 2015 by shabbadoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 I might have to put it somewhere else too; in order to avoid the hvy bolters and mini wings. They'll be horrid to match up or mask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabbadoo Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) Just paint the fuselage, not the wings, heavy bolters, or anything else. So, just mask the boundaries and paint the red bend on either using a brush or airbrush (either will give you a lot of control), and touch up as needed. Highlight/weather any hard edges, and there you have it. Edited April 17, 2015 by shabbadoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) I have a new friend, he just opened a hobby shop 2 minutes from my home...AWESOME!!!!The owner Dan at Valhalla Games took this pic and stuck it on his FB page.Cool pic, THk is clipped and blue-tacked together and still has bits not on it. But put all together it probably doesn't need a red stripe on the hull, agree?Big pic is big, sorry 'bout that EDIT: Please excuse Papa Smurf BS Edited April 18, 2015 by Brother Stobz Pigshead, Cactus, Prot and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interrogator Stobz Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) Another slow period for me, curse you social life  I did get these last little bits done though.  That makes it official, every bit of the Slackenhawk is painted! I do need to add freehand and other bits to it once assembled because that'll require a holistic approach (it may or may not receive a red stripe. probably not as none of my other 3rd Company vehicles do, it'll probably get a few smaller company markings though). Plus a few touch ups where required.  Now I face the challenge of magnetising the undercarriage (lowered and raised states), air-brakes (open and closed) and bits of the hull; probably the nose-cone but definitely the tail for storage safety reasons.  Anyway here be the last boring bits...sorry 'bout that   Log, Log, Log...  BS Edited April 29, 2015 by Brother Stobz elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Arkley Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Another slow period for me.

Stoic Raptor Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 So I was searching for inspiration on Company Veterans squads last night and I came across a thread from 2012 where Stobz was talking about a Thunderhawk he was working on for his 3rd Company... is this the same model?
