The work week was especially exhausting, so I did nada last night. But after a long winter's nap, I awoke and began to play again.
This time, touching up the black with the airbrush.
See the green overspray on the ornamental spiky bit posts and white spots where the primer didn't quite get?
Well, they clean up nicely IMHO I also decided to try adding some shadow between the deck and side plates too
Looking back now, I probably should've used a wash or ink for this instead, since my aim needs work oops Oh well, it'll force me to work with the green again..maybe, we shall see
Now onto masking more hazard stripes. But I think i'll try the new 6mm tape this time, and do the yellow stripes over the black, the way I am used to doing it with a brush.
How goes it with the molds?

The molds came out fairly well. I have to do a modest re configure of my workspace to cast a triangle to add to the master... or otherwise come up with something. I can send you the first pull molds monday If you would like, otherwise I'tll be a little bit as I need to really get back to work on a crapton of terrain I'm building for use at Templecon.
Hey man! Awesome! send away, no big deal. Next time I'll make a second master THis is exciting!

I like the green that you're using there, DST. It lends itself to looking old before you even weather it!
I see you learned your lesson on the overspray. Finally.
I'm glad you're enjoying your new toy
Keep up the great work!

wow...that is what i miss out on when yesterday i had to go early to bed due to some major headaches...
boy...shaky hands...but that is adjustable by the lil screw on the backside of your neck...justa turn clockwise and the shaking will be gone...
gotta second rawsons statement to the green... looks very good and convincingly been out in the bleeding sunshine for years...
and the hazard stripes are really looking way better now with that tinier tape in use!
as for metalics done with AB... well that would make me hesitant as well... metalics are way thicker and sometimes clumpy...so no telling what might happen to your very thin needle if you used those two ingredients together...
@VIk Yeah, I'm afraid th little metal flakes will clog up the little needle area. I got some more airbrush paint colors today, but didnt even find AB metallics, so I will assume that it isn't recommended. Missed you being away for a day Vik!
@Tortured, thanks man! But you know I'm not done with it yet, more to do.
@LDD THanks, I guess it didn't turn out too bad eh?

Pretty sure vallejo do paints specifically for ab, including metals, Vallejo Air iirc.
Also, you can use acrylic thinners to thin metal paints. Perhaps talk to MajorTom11 or Eggroll (both ab afficionados) to get tips of how to spray metal paints. Im sure theyd be more than happy to help out.

wow... thanks... was very akward not being on here... and boy had i wade through some heavy pages for my backlog... that is what you get for being sick for a day... lots of stuff to read through...
i bet i would kick myself if i tried metalics with an aribrush and then get it all clogged up...better your brushwork for these still...after alll one doesn´t want to loose groundcontact because of all that airbrush induced chest swelling^^
today we went to the hobby and art shop...the one that sells the foam core...we, that is me, went for some more plastic rods and i showed young felix what is on store for the next week...showed him that overpriced chopper for referrence...he was impressed ...as was me^^... got me some tubes and also some 1x2mm sheats of PC as well as a nice and tiny L-profil rod... i think rivettos buddies will have some nice clawlike fingers...^^
Looks great dstein You're really starting to get comfortable with the air-brush, this means we expect at least double the amount of product in this thread from now on
Yeah Vit, the owner of the store I bought the Vallejo Model Air paints from printed me a 3 page list of all the colors in case I wanted to order some. I'll have to take a look at it. I know they can be thinned, but I probably want to use my Badger 150 for those, larger needle.
Good stuff Vik! Can't wait to see more!

what is this liquide tape made of? i suppose it is some kind of latex milk? later on you can just peel it off?...interresting.... i saw someone using marmite and other stuff like salt and so on for waethering...which in essence is all a way to maks off some areas...
I'm not sure what it is, but yes I assume it is a latex-type stuff too Vik. Instructions say to score it with a sharp knife and peel. We shall see
I have listened to the complete catalog of THE Creedence while painting this too.
