Submarine in 1/350 scale done in acrylics and oils for weathering. The base for all my submarines I keep at the same size, hand cut hardwood and painted with a miniature slip for the sub to be displayed on. The base contains three things - the national flag of origin, a human for size comparison in 1/350 just above and to the right of the flag (look closely) and believe it or not you can scan the QR code to the right with your cellphone camera (use the side view photo) and get lots of information on the submarine in question!
I like the sheen of the metal paint you use. Very lifelike!
ReplyDeleteThank you! The subs are actually gloss clear coated at one point in order to lay down oils for weathering. In the process afterwards it leaves just the right amount of sheen afterwards. Some subs require a flat coat in areas - it just depends on the individual sub in question. I research (without going too crazy) each one in order to try to create a decent representation.
