Far away in Chile...
Hi friends, afther a long time watching incredibles works here, I decide to star my first weathering.
I got a new job, in a new city, whit no friends, so I got a lot of free time, and to can use in a good way all this free time (from 7pm), Ill be weathering.
I star whit an "Industrial model" gondola, couse in case of make something wrong... it was really cheap.
Well, the name of this work is "Overload", and is not finished, I want to add metal wheels and good couplers.
PLEASE, be honest, and tell me what do you think about my work.
***If you clik on pics, you can open the full size image
well, I scrap all that I can the gondola
Then whit a Candle (lower temperature), I try to make the "hit" effect on sides, when it was too much (not real), I quickly use a knife on hot plastic to rebuild it. I press between pillars, where the steel its more thin.
I start coloring whit artist colors (oils). I add some trementine... big mistake, it takes a couple of days to dry... for a next time, I will use a thinner.
burnt ciena was used to represent "deep" stain in all the structure (pillars) and golden ochre for ligth stain (panels). I let it dry for a couple of hours, and I wash it whit a brush (nº3 palette) and trementine (few drops) from the top to the bottom.Like wather falling, but trying not to remove the burnt ciena from pillars.
The nail it was used to hold the model.
And finaly, I use some chalk dust (pitt bars):
Faber Castell 9286-190 for fresh stain (red)
9686-280 for darker and old stain
9286-180 for dust
I try to apply chalks when artist colors are still fresh, this way it get some texture. I gently let the dust over the almost dry paint, trying to make difference between exposed and covered parts. I Sprayed whit mate cote, and again a little bit more of chalk to use the spray cote again.
For Wheel set's, I use TestorsFlat Brown Brun mat, and Humbrol Metal cote 27001. Same as the rest, I use chalks to represent dust.
Finally, a photo of all the tools that I used.
Thanks for reading
