Sfumare con la polvere di carboncino...
ATTENZIONE: non toccare il modello con le dita e alla fine proteggerlo sempre con una vernice trasparente.

  • what is that black stuff

  • ...it is charcoal pencil upon an abrasive paper to produce the dust for drybrush.

  • well as i work on models for warhammer 40k i was wondering if you have any tips on how to get a nice glass look in windows of thigs like small vision slits on tanks any ideas anybody has for that would be great

  • Mmmmh...You can use an aluminium adhesive tape or silver sticker and upon it put a transparent color (such as Tamiya X Clear).

    For example, look on my web site in gallery/gundam sd/MSM-03 ACGUY.

    Otherwise for led effect, there are Fluorescent paints by Mr Color. ;)

  • sir,, i am thinking about the coats,...

    are varnish and satin, glossy, and matt the same?

    sorry for noob questions...T_T...

  • Glossy, satin or matt is the possible finish of the transparent varnish (enamel or acrylic)...So, transparent glossy, transparent satin and transparent matt (opaque).

    You can choose the effect that you prefer (satin is the best middle way).

    Also the same modelling paints (Tamiya, Humbrol, Revell, Mr Color etc) have two possible finishes: glossy or matt.

  • Does varnish work well even without painting?

  • ohhh..

    i see it clearly.. tnx...

    maybe i just need to see some pictures of those coats to choose what i really like^_^..

    tnx master zohtube^_^

  • You are welcome! :)

    For the coat, any brand of modelling paints has their transparent varnish (Tamiya, Humbrol, Revell and so on): glossy, satin or matt (according your taste). Otherwise it is good also a common spray can. But make some trials during the spray-painting to avoid a bad covering.

  • oh  i see it,..

    tnx man..

    so what coat shoul i use to protect my models?
