No, but I just did now. That's a great video. I kinda did a stone knives & bearskins version of that with enamels & thinner. My whole thing is 1) how can you reproduce the look of a movie ship with entirely different materials, and 2) how can you do it cheaply?
If I had a garage or a studio I probably would have had an airbrush set up long ago, but this is me, in a small home, not allowed to create smells & such. It's a challenge, but I still enjoy when I can succeed.
Another good video is of Steve doing the paint the Deagostini falcon if you haven't seen it... some useful pointers in there.
1) Well you cant exactly, but you can trick your brain into thinking it's seeing the same thing. Im not always great at explaining myself but thats where I was headed with the yellow toothbrush splatter story. On the studio model the yellow splatter gives off a hue. You can't brush splatter a smaller model effectively but by brushing a thin yellow filter over it your brain still registers a yellow hue. Using a brush to simulate overspray might be a bit harder though.... dry stippling perhaps.
2)cheaply? It depends how cheap I guess. More than once Ive entirely painted models with cheap acrylics with the addition of some pva for adhesion.
In the case of the Falcon I did spend a few dollars on tamiya enamels for the base colour and panels. The weathering was cheap water based acrylics. I did also spend $40 or so on a pack of weathering powders but that will see me through multiple builds.
If talking equipment I have no fancy anything. Razor blades, tweezers and some sand paper.
Im fortunate to have an airbrush and compressor as tools of trade so didn't have to buy one specifically for hobby purposes but to be fair thats a few hundred dollars.
I understand where you're coming from being in a small house. I recall living situations where I could basically do nothing.
Nowadays I will cover the dining table and airbrush water based paints there but am lucky to be able to walk outside to a shed for any enamels.... not to mention its usually warm here in Queensland so Im not slowed down by cold temperatures.
I hope my comment on the overspray wasn't seen as negative I'm sorry... just an observation on you're comment of it still seeming clean and not wanting to weather it further.
You achieved a fantastic result and I for one would display that proudly.
Cheers,
Josh
