Over the past couple of days I've been painting a few figures for my Friday submission - they're finished and the post is waiting in the queue to be dealt with.
Today saw me begin work on some of the interior pieces for the Type S Scout. I decided to start with the partitions and bulkheads, which all received their main colour by airbrush. As one was the upper engineering section which combined the walls and floor in one piece, I decided to do all the engineering floors - the floors and doors of the different sections will all be in different colours (engineering = red, crew accommodations = green; bridge = blue; other areas = blue-grey).
Can see what you mean about the green Tamsin, a desaturated colour would work better, as for the stripe, I like the different colour to the rest, I would say try yellow, but yellow is a whole other problem in itself.
ReplyDeleteI think you mean a saturated green would be better - that's what I've tried since and it does look better. :)
DeleteMmm, I think when you have all the rooms inside the hull, the basecoat bluegrey will wash and blend in too much tooonce in.. they may need to be brighter to stand out.
ReplyDeleteI think the blue-grey basecoat will look OK once everything is put together, but we'll have to wait and see. :)
