Great job Boris! If you don't mind sharing, how did you achieve the rust effects? |

lrankine,
The weathering of U-Boats and particulary rust effects could be achived by few diffent ways.
Rust effects on this model made entirly with oil paints. As the base I use "Siena natur"/"Raw Sienna". The first layer is Siena + 25% of white. It is for rust just created by flows of the water. The second layer is only "Siena" and makes strips of fading water flows rust. The third level is Siena + 5-10% of red. It used for "old rust" and applied with finest brush I have.
I like this metod for few reasons and mostly because oil paints could be applied over acryl, enamel and other types of paints. Another huge advantage of oil paints is long drying time (could be dramatically acelerated with special liquid). You will have to clean and repaint any fragment without damaging cover paint.
Hope this helps. If you have any questions about other methods, let me know.

Beautiful work....especially on getting the snowmen emblem on the conning tower. Do you ever use an airbrush in your painting work? |

Torplexed,
I have airbrush, it is cheap Revell. I use it for painting the whole thing.
The small details I paint with brush. The camo strips on this model also been painted with brush.

Looks great! You answered my question bout the airbrush before I got to ask, good to cuz I didnt want to buy an expensive brush. One question though, How long have you been doing models on a detail level like this and on average how long do they take you? |
