@@Sonic32084 you could try using matt varnish, an airbrush one like Mig ammo. I have used ordinary pva diluted and with matt varnish added in the past, works similar

Nice video. BTW, I always use acrylics for washes, with very few problems. I apply them over enamel or lacquer paint or clear coat, and clean the excess with a Q-tip moistened with isopropyl alcohol. I find it less smelly and less messy to use than oil or enamel washes. Allow the wash to dry to touch (about 1/2 hour) and clean the excess before it cures.

I was thinking maybe of getting some of those photography diffusers. The big white squares and wall mount two of em. One of each side of my work desk. And then grabbing one of these lamps or similar. Not sure about if that’s way overboard though.
@ScaleModelMedic10 ай бұрын
Led lamps are much cheaper nowadays, with built in diffusers etc. The Benq is a really good lamp for on your desk but the price (at the time of this video anyway) was high. Shop around and find what works for you. Wall mounting is a great idea though, keep that bench space nice and open

Amazing weathering tutorial using pigments! Going to use this on my next tank for sure. Is there a substitute for the scenic fixer that you can suggest. Looks a bit like pea glue in the video, but I’m guessing it isn’t? Liked and subbed 👍
@ScaleModelMedic Жыл бұрын
Hi, thank you for taking time to comment. The scenic glue is likely some derivative of pva, it dries matt so realistically either an acrylic matt varnish or a combo of matt varnish and pva would probably do the job just fine. Normal pva would probably get you by but you do run a low risk of getting some gloss finish where it builds up. I've used mig ammo matt acrylic varnish in the past with similar results, it won't take you long at all to find something that works for you and get the hang of it! Happy modelling

My apologies if this has already been asked and answered but can you tell me more about your homemade wet palate? Looks to be a household sponge with wax paper on top? Always looking for those homemade gadgets that save me from spending money!
@ScaleModelMedic Жыл бұрын
Hi, sure! No problem. It is indeed just a household sponge but it's the paper that makes it work properly. It's baking parchment, not wax paper. It has to be the right paper as this is what permits the water to pass through one way only, replenishing the water in the paint but not letting the paint into the reservoir. I bought a big roll of it on amazon.

The realism you've gotten makes me suspect you've worked in a foundry, smelter or some kind of heavy industry where you'd be around these pipes. All that's missing is cigarette butts, empty yellow demarkation spray cans and a couple of worn out workman's gloves and this would fit in at the copper smelter I spent my 20's working at.
