WarriorFish Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Very fancy indeed, it'll really pop once you get the details on :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4039445 Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Oils are in the post so hopefully I'll start weathering this weekend. In the meantime Im going to do 4 masks/sprays a night and see how I get on!

Vel'Cona Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Good gravy! That's a ton of work but the results are already speaking for themselves! Wish I had this kind of patience.

scatmandoo Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Your skills are awesome! Love what you're doing on the Valk so far, the interior is great, and the panel spraying looks immense. Keep it up as you will like the finished result.

WarriorFish Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Yeah just think of the end result - and don't do another Valkyrie for a while :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4040460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 (edited) Will it ever end....... I reckon Im one or two masks away from completion. If I can get it done for the weekend I can seal it and then its onto oil weathering Edited September 15, 2019 by UltraRich WarriorFish and scatmandoo 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4041458 Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraRich Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Bit more of an update. All the panels are done (no, Ive not done underneath!!) so its had its layer of purity seal and its on to the fun bit First though I wanted to tie this into the idea of my Ultra PDF with the blue pads. Ive gone for wing and nose stripes that will be weathered and chipped as they currently sit on a layer of hair spray on top of the purity seal The big question is do I leave them alone or add a black or white stripe down either side where they meet the green? Comments on leave alone, white stripes or black stripes.

WarriorFish Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Very nice! I think it could work as it is or with either colour but I think I'd go white if it were me :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4046452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Might be a bit late now Its a a dirty Valk Im now testing the oil weathering on the wings now Ive chipped the stripes Without flash but daylight lamp With flash Edited September 15, 2019 by UltraRich CaptainDangerous, WarriorFish, mustardParty and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4046477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I'd say just te blue was a good idea. The weathering is top notch and the shading is really great!!! :tu: UltraRich 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4046573 Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraRich Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 @UltraRich, that is one good looking bird soooo impressive. Great work Thanks Im going to start the cockpit and pilots tonight and see if I can get that done. I'll then move onto the engine that Ive not decided which bits are to be metal and which are painted yet.

Vel'Cona Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Love the stripes! They really make the wings pop out more. Are you going to put transfers/decals of some kind over the stripes, too?

Are you going to put transfers/decals of some kind over the stripes, too? Thanks Re the decals probably at some point but I havent worked out the unified markings for my PDF. If you look at my guard they all have a blue pad with no markings. What I'll end up doing is adding them all en mass at some point. What I have done though is added one today and done a bit of over painting Ive also magnitised the cockpit cover Edited September 15, 2019 by UltraRich WarriorFish and Radiation 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4048312 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Very nice work Rich. How did you get the 3d pop effect? Also how did you get the oil streaks? My valk and vendetta both tended up with heavy amounts of browns around the panel lines to simulate dirt and crud build up (Their planet's got a ton of Afghanistan like areas).

Inso Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Excellent stuff all around but your basic troops are very nice indeed :) The smooth transition between highlights really sets them apart from others I have seen.

WarriorFish Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Exquisite detail, and you're doing it quickly too!

Vel'Cona Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Man, those Valkyrie/Vendetta cockpits are the biggest pain! Mine refused to sit straight and had to be held in place with metal clamps. I never thought to magnetize it, though. Sharp!

UltraRich Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Thanks everyone @ lrik_Ironfist Ive used the technique in the link in the post further up this page. You spray the whole thing with the mid colour then mask each panel in turn. You then spray the dark and light colours at either end of the panel but maintain the direction on all panels. It looks strange pre wash but once its oil washed it makes a really good effect. @Vel'Cona I had the same problem. I just couldn't get it to sit. In the end I took the approach that I wanted to magnitise it as Im detailing the cockpit too so if it doesnt sit perfectly Im not too worried Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303832-small-ig-and-scion-force/page/4/#findComment-4049672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
