Lot better coverage that way.Longscopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02597714822232875050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4933183473509799295.post-32629119369738019182009-11-10T19:22:38.009-08:002009-11-10T19:22:38.009-08:00Thanks for the feedback!

Up close, you do see the stroke lines. Ill have to keep playing around with it.<br /><br />As for the mould line, yes, it does scream in these picture. I should slice that down.Ultra Vulkannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4933183473509799295.post-17636373415303920572009-11-10T06:02:21.132-08:002009-11-10T06:02:21.132-08:00If I might make a couple suggestions?
Your white ...If I might make a couple suggestions?<br /><br />Your white is far too transluscent. There needs to either be more coats at that consistency, or use a white paint that is more opaque. Try the white from P3 it's fantastic. You could also try using a light grey for your line highlighting, it covers better and won't be such a stark contrast.<br /><br />Second, the mould line on that helmet SCREAMS. Try dragging an xacto across it (sideways) and that'll come off during your prep work. It'll look much cleaner.<br /><br />keep it up :)Longscopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02597714822232875050noreply@blogger.com
