As I now got decals for the first ship, I showing them here too.
Then a pic of both ships.
I did some weathering with Tamiyas panel line wash, Agrax earthshade, silver and diluted pale sand.
I’ll consider both builds done and will post final reveal pics as soon as possible.
Even this one got decals in my little decal session.
I just need to sort one mor small decal on each side, but thought it was best to let the ones I had done dry properly first. Then this one is done!
It took a while for me to sit down and put don decals on this one, but now it’s done!
Next I’ll clear cote it and then start weathering. So not much left now!
I masked and painted red chevron markings, that is common for White scars.
Part of the engine nacelles was painted red and then the engines, guns and some other details was painted with black metal.
Then gold was painted on some details.
The windows was painted.
Next I’ll clear cote it and add markings.
As the decals for the first Gunship was missing, I got a new one and decided to build that one too. At least there is decals enough for several ships on the sheet.
The first one I built was for the traitors as it turned out, so now I’m building one in a loyal scheme.
Building it is quite easy and everything fits very well.
Right before I started painting, I decided to glue the canon as well.
Instead of starting with black primer as usual, I went for grey instead.
I then used beige and ivory as zenithal colours.
On top of that I painted a off white/ivory colour.
Next I’ll ask for the chevron pattern on the nose and probably on the wings.
Here’s some pics of my finished build!
This was a quick and fun build! Using Speed Paint to paint the major parts of the ship was an interesting experience, that turned out better than expected. It sure is a way to get models and figures painted faster. And if done right they turn out looking quite good as well!
I did some additional painting and weathering and will consider it done.
I’m still missing decals, but it probably take a few weeks before I know, and besides I haven’t decided which unitI want to make.
Next post will be pics of the finished build!
Here’s a few pics of my finished Goff Rocker figure!
This was a fun figure to paint, even if it took a while before I got him finished.
First I gave it an overall cote of black primer.
Then a grey primer at about 45-60 degrees around from the top.
Then white primer was sprayed almost from above.
After that I did some dry brushing with white to pick up some details even on the underside.
Then I used Speed paint on parts of the ship. This time I used airbrush instead of brushing it on by hand.
As can be seen the base was masked to allow for the metal colour.
I masked the ship for the next step and realized that perhaps it was best to paint the windows first.
After also masking the windows, i first painted white on the areas where the first colour was showing. Then Goblin green was painted on the rest of the ship.
The tape was then removed.
It turned out pretty good, but I wasn’t totally happy with the demarcations in some places.
But since this is a speed build, I’m not re-painting it.
After removing the tape from the windows and placed it on its stand, it looked like this!
The windows got some shadows and highlight in an attempt to make them look like glass.
All the guns and engines got metal paint.
Next I’ll do some highlights, pin wash and general weathering.
The remaining parts was assembled.
I opted to build it flying with the landing gear up.
I’m not sure which part of the stand I’ll use yet, but perhaps I’ll use the bottom grey rod and the short clear one.
For some reason the decals are missing and this was a brand new sealed kit.
I’ll see if I can sort it somehow.
