Hey Startet painting my Brass Coffin so i tought i post the how to here.Maybe you see something you like,maybe not Basecoat: After cleaning the Model i basecoated the Hull with Olive Drab and Earth Brown Spraypaints from Tamiya.Otherwise you can Black Prime yr Model and Drybrush it with Bestial Brown/Catachan Green for example.This works best for Bright Main Colors.If youre going for a more dark/military Color then Basecoat the Model Black and drybrush it with Dark Flesh/Terracotta like Paints... VERY IMPORTANT: Seal the Models Surface with Purity Seal or Matt Varnish before the next Steps ![]() ![]() Next up:The Masking.I used a Meat Marmite from the Supermarket for this- very effective and a nice Smell Paint it on all the Parts on the Model where you want to have some chipped off Paint/Rust Effect and let it completely dry![]() ![]() Now you can paint the Model with the Maincolor you want.In this Case its Scorpion Green applied with an Airbrush Kit to save Time,if you do this Step with a Brush then water down the Paint as much as possible! ![]() After the Paint is dried remove the Marmite with a Sponge/Toothbrush and warm soapy Water ![]() ![]() Now the Vehicle looks like this: ![]() ![]() After that i painted all the Mechanics,Engines;Grills etc and sparely Highlightet the Edges with Chainmail... ![]() ![]() ...and added some more Rust with watered down Vermin Brown/Devlan Mud Wash Mix ![]() ![]() Last but not least i brushed the Underside of the Hull with a Mix of Earth Brown/Sand Pigments. ![]() ![]() the Finished Hull: ![]() Now i have to get back to the Table and Paint the Rest of the Brass Coffing so stay tuned if you like
