Tieren (Part VI)

Ok, time for another UPDATE!!!!

It is now into the painting stages. Chosen red as my preferred colour. Yes I can hear the masses going," oh com'on, not another red one....." or "can't you think of something more original??" Well, I have never done a red colour MS before, so I thought this would be a nice opportunity to try it.=)

My base was primed with Grey, shaded with one layer black and one layer red brown. 2 reds were mixed as I wanted some contrast ie, some parts of the Tieren will have a lighter shade of red while others get darker. I also took a gamble by having some details painted in Gold....

Dark red is basically a mix of Red + Red Brown + Black
Light red is Above mixture + White + Florocent Pink + Orange
Gold is Gaia Bright Gold + Clear Orange


Spraying this kit can really be a pain, especially the masking... Gosh my precious masking tape.... Well, no pain no gain I suppose....
