First Predator paint up in 20 years. Good learning experience to gain confidence to take on Narin's 'Aboriginal' next. Will aim for more layering/transparency in building up the skin colour and luckily no metal armour on that one Tips and tricks greatly appreciated!
For the skin patterns I used the Artool Texture FX Templates (Cosmic/Master/Organic) cut up in about 30 smaller pieces, to better fit the shape and contour of the kit. I used these for outlining the patterns, then filled in the colour with the airbrush. The dark brown dots were added later also with the airbrush. I was quite happy with how this turned out.
Erwin: I used the photo's of your 'Spirit duo' you posted on modelbrouwers.nl in 2013 to make up my own 'paint plan', so thanks for those!
