Dymerski · 04-20-2009, 03:37 PM

Many hours of starring at pics of the real red 5 model... I think paid off, I dont think I missed anything

Here are some quickies

Dean

More to come

GF Hope ya like so far!

dirtydave · 04-20-2009, 03:47 PM

Well I 'll say it looks like all that starring paid off.Wonderful.

nightrider · 04-20-2009, 03:52 PM

Awesome Dean.

I need to get you to do one of these for me.

DARKSIDE72 · 04-20-2009, 05:40 PM

Now THAT is a gorgeous Red 5. Outstanding work!

DL 44 Blaster · 04-20-2009, 05:56 PM

I'm just floored

Outstanding work!!

rahman · 04-20-2009, 06:03 PM

That is really astonishing work. Congratulations...
Will you really take commissions for building and painting ?
Please count me in the list...

Bravo...

Rahman

Love the weathering and great attention to detail!

Scott Graham · 04-20-2009, 09:54 PM

WOW! Love the subtleties in the paint job. AWESOME!

Ditto. You have really nailed the dulled-down, flat look. I love it. The nose pic is a bit overexposed so hard to tell, but looks like you've done the first build I've seen to correctly represent the nose-block grey stripe, also. Well done sir!

edit: seconding REL, it is the best X-wing paint job I've seen.

REL · 04-20-2009, 10:41 PM

You must see X Wing's in your sleep! This is the best Red 5 yet.

mslz22 · 04-21-2009, 06:14 AM

This is really stunning, great work....

Guy Cowen · 04-21-2009, 09:11 AM

What a masterpiece this is, Its always nice to have a goal to aim too & boy this has given me one. I wish I had another V3 as my next one is already not to be Red 5.

Dean any chance you could talk through some of your technique & methods? I also think its really cool that each of the great artists here has there own style, your trade marks are very noticeable on this build, you can see straight away who painted it, absolutely stunning. A true idol

Robiwon · 04-21-2009, 09:50 AM

I have to agree with everyone as well. This is a great, great build!

vaderdarth · 04-21-2009, 09:55 AM

Gotta agree here, that is the most wicked red 5 paintjob I've seen to date!!!!

mverta · 04-21-2009, 10:36 AM

Not bad, Dean...

One thing though - and I see this on virtually every paintjob - is the yellow is too saturated and too primary. For some reason, that one offending color always jumps out at me as being worse than the various interpretations of blue and green I see. Here's the actual color:

I think having that much primary saturation takes the thing into toy-land but quick. Overall, though, very nice attention to detail there!

Stilgar · 04-21-2009, 11:13 AM

Stunning paintjob!

Looks totally convincing to me!

GF · 04-21-2009, 11:26 AM

WOW!!!!

OK now that I came down to my senses, just amazing!!!!

Dean painted my Blockade runner, Y-wing and now my V3 Red 5,

I just love your weathering technique, just TOP NOTCH!!! I'm a very very picky guy and takes alot for someone to impress me, though I've seen amazing builds/paintjobs in photos, Dean's works looks amazing in photos but even better in person. I concider myself a very good model builder just not at level when it comes to weathering, I can tell good work done with love and passion.

Not 'arf! lovely job, congrats on the bird Gerrardo, she's a stunner!

Robiwon · 04-21-2009, 12:18 PM

On my Blue Leader I used some yellow panels. However i didn't paint them. I used yellow pastel chalk which gives a much more delicate color. As seen here.

mverta · 04-21-2009, 12:34 PM

Yep, very saturated. If I was going to make a swatch for the target color, it'd be pretty close to this:

Dymerski · 04-21-2009, 01:44 PM

Depends on what pic you look at, a washed out one or this...I had to go in between

it sure is not what you are saying...I dont want to get in a debate over this...to each his own. I think I made the right choice

Dean

mverta · 04-21-2009, 01:59 PM

No problem Dean. Elsewhere on the board is a fairly boring thread about the absolute color references I've got for Red 5 if you're interested why I say that. Or you can ask Barry Jones next time you talk to him; either way...

All good here!!! Love talking models..Question...now, this is just a question nothing else, how can there be absolute color ref. when red 5 is trash. She is gone right? No model left for us to look at?

If there are pics, they can look different in each photo as the 100 or so I have?

Just asking not STARING ANYTHING!! I am an empty cup and like being filled with knowledge!
