Wow, you work so fast, Miss Nitori! You've already finished the light tank?I just followed the instructions and assembled and glued it together. Easy.Such an itty-bitty turret! It's adorable!Isn't it?It's surprisingly detailed for being so small. It looks more complicated than mine.I guess so. It's actually well made for a toy to be built by a child.The assembly's pretty much done now, but......the problem will be painting it. If anything, this will be the main part of making it.I investigated the process, and here's a rough outline.
â‘ Base-Coat the Entire Body
Cover the entire frame with a base coat using a spray or an airbrush.＊Feel free to skim through this partI see...so you dirty it up on purpose in order to make it realistic.I don't get the fundamentals at all, though.Right. That's called "weathering".Well, colour paints are my forte! I've got some oil paints we can use.That's my weakness...click clickPlastic Adhesive
Nitori Cement
â‘¡ Color-Separate the Parts
â‘¢ Ink Wash
â‘£ Painting Details & Applying Decals (Stickers)
⑤ Dirtying (Weathering)
â‘¥ Even More Weathering
⑦ Dry Brush & Finishing Touches
Anyway, do a bunch of stuffBroadly separate out all parts (like the undercarriage) with acrylic colors and such.Wash down recessed areas using ink diluted with a solvent. This will make details stand out. (Enamel coating & such)Use a fine brush to color-separate detailed ornamentation. Once you apply the decals, it'll feel like you're about done.Use a variety of reddish brown acrylic colors, oil painting tools, sand, and so on to represent staining from dirt or sand. Heavily dirty up the undercarriage in particular. Painting it roughly with plenty of moisture is fine.Make free use of your skill and taste to stain it realistically with dirt, raindrops, rust, peeling paint, scratches, etc.Gently brush projecting areas with a bright frame color on a dry brush to make details stand out. By inking in recesses with a dark color and dry-brushing projections with a light color, you can create a lively variety. Rub the corners of the armoring with a pencil to bring out a metallic feel.Done!!Mnh!
