oh dang those yellows shine. Mind sharing your paint there?

White with the black panel lines already traced in, then P3 yellow, then orange ink thinned into a wash on the corners. I’m not really happy with it, I should have trusted the orange more instead of using black I think.

Thanks! I'll give something like that a try.

I started this guy ages ago and really should finish. Made a few fundamental bad calls that I’ll have to live with and fix on the rest of the mechs.

I like that. Are you just painting the blue on the panels and leaving the primer in the crevices?

[–] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, you can see the start of the process on the other mech. It’s very time consuming.
