catdude01 35 Report post Posted February 25, 2016 Hi: This is my second attempt working with a resin bust, this time a wonderful kit from Young Miniatures. Its was a second hand purchase, so some parts where missing like the helmet and the gun sling, but still a good one to practice my painting skills. Hope you like the results. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ewahl 64 Report post Posted February 26, 2016 Hi, Pedro, This is an overall excellent model. The skin tones and gunmetal treatment are very impressive. What type and brand of paints did you use? Ed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catdude01 35 Report post Posted February 26, 2016 Hi: Its was a mix of tamiya and vallejo colors. The skin was all vallejo. The uniform was a mix of tamiya Flat green and flat blue with a dot of white. The eyes took me 9 tries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roktman 132 Report post Posted March 1, 2016 Wonderful job! Nice work on the skin painting. 9 tries at the eye? I hear ya on that. They look good!! One trick I learned is never make the figure look directly at the viewer. Have him look to either side, up or down, and the eye painting will be easier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catdude01 35 Report post Posted March 1, 2016 Thank You Kevin! Well is my second figure I can't expect a Picasso, but I'm pleased with the results. Still learning the blending stuff, layering, etc. Thank for the tip on the eyes, I will on the next figure! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
