SAM-6. Rusty a bit.

Hi chaps!
Sorry for long delay. All you heard about last events in Ukraine obviously. So I had no ardour to build models in these several months.

So, SAM-6 was build and painted in long term weathering manner.
I used method of painting described by Kyle Nelson here. Very interesting technique. 






The major problem was to assembly the tracks. They were finished after a third attempt! And the result not that I expected however... 












The model was painted applying several layers of paint. 

The lower part of the model first layer is the mix of Mr. Colour #8 (Silver) with black gloss paint (3 parts silver and 1 part black). Rear deck and upper part of the model got layer of silver paint with white in the same proportion. 

Once the paint dried I applied on the surface couple layers of hairspray and let it dry too. 
On the next stage (most fun for me) I used pigments by "Ho-Ma". The cheapest pigments I ever saw (1.50 $ for 16ml) and they are NOT worse than top brands! :)


The next was applied layer of Tamiya XF-49 paint and the last -  main green was mix of XF-13 with XF-49.

Next two evenings I spend with model knife, hard brush and water. 


Have fun!
