[@rossomachin]

I will try this on my current project - Firefly Vc (RFM)

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

I will be following your progress.

[@longlance67]

I've never seen weathering pencils being used I the wild! They are very interesting with the effects you can achieve with them, will have to try them out now 😉

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

I think that you might enjoy them...Happy Holidays!!

[@SmallSoldier]

Looking good Rick. I like what you did to the lower running gear sections. 🍻

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Thanks. The very best of the season to you.

[@SmallSoldier]

You too man!

[@gavinbooth]

I think the way the pencils and oils work together is a good combination nice one Rick . Regards Gav.

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Thanks 👍

[@DHScaleModels]

Excellent weathering my friend, happy christmas

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Thanks, you too!

[@schweikces]

Great skills with the Weathering Pencils and with the oils, Rick

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Many thanks!

[@gaetamodeler]

Nice tips & stunning work Rick ,thanks for sharing 👌

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Thanks, my friend. Take care.

[@evann2938]

Some very nice effects. I started using the Weathering Pencils this year, and I'm very happy with the results. Looking forward to seeing the next video, and where you take this.

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Thanks, Evan.

[@undeadichi]

i struggled to get a decent effect from those pencils i will try again with renewed vigor thanks for the inspiration

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Hi Simon. I think that the "trick" (if there is one) is understanding that the pencils are another tool in the box and can produce unique effects - and not a replacement for other tools. Thanks and Happy Holidays.

[@scalemodelinc.6077]

Haven’t worked with the weathering pencils yet. Good info 👊😀👍

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

I'm glad that you liked it. Stay tuned as the next episode will be a longer form demonstration of the pencils, alongside the oils. Next Tuesday. Thank you!

[@f1matt]

If you do ever need some paint masks again, feel free to hit me up. My vinyl cutter has its limits but I'm always willing to try. Really enjoying these videos Rick.

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Will do.

[@danielbaxter3902]

been waiting a long time tos seeweathering pencils used by someone in the know, would be awesome to see more content with them in

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Hi Daniel, many thanks. I am planning on producing one more episode that will feature the pencils in a more lengthy and detailed manner as I continue with this project. That episode will probably become available just after the holidays.

[@RimsModels]

Great video my friend never tried the weathering pencils before definitely get interesting results with them especially when used with oils thanks for sharing and have a happy Christmas and new year 👍🙏

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@michaelpatterson4288]

I like the pencils but when I add the water to the model it desolves the acrylic paint. Should I prime my models first to make the paint stick better? And if so with what kind of paint?

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

If the acrylic paint is dry then water shouldn't effect it (unless you are using Mission Models). It does sound like it is a sticking issue, the pressure used with the pencils is causing the paint to lift. Primer before painting should help with this.

[@baltazargabka_]

That would be easier with decals if you would put gloss coat before decals

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

I sometimes use gloss, but usually don't find it necessary. It depends upon the quality of the decal.

[@baltazargabka_]

@@RickLawlerPropaganda You never had problems with stains on matt paint after water or decal liquid?

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

@@baltazargabka_ No, I haven't had issues with staining. Lucky I guess!

[@baltazargabka_]

@@RickLawlerPropaganda Sometimes I had. Especially on deep matt tamiya. Not sure if it was because of water, decal glue or decal liquid.

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

@@baltazargabka_ If that is the case that you are experiencing stains, then yes, the gloss coat is very helpful. I used to do it out of habit, but over time I have found that it didn't seem necessary. But, as I mentioned, it does depend upon the quality of the decal, sometimes they are thick and I know that they will take more work and so I would probably begin with a gloss knowing that I would need to repeat application treatments.

[@shaunmcintosh7617]

GOOD STUFF Rick 👍

[@RickLawlerPropaganda]

You bet, Shaun. Take care.
