Willen Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Hoping the orange in the Szally logo on the opposite shoulder will balance this... unsure of it ATM. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arc 724 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 No, I'm referring to the real pipe cleaners that come with airbrush kits. Basically the same thing as a smoking pipe cleaner. If you go to a smoke shop that sells pipes or Churchwarden pipes they will have long pipe cleaners that are better quality that those brightly colored ones.

Arc 724 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Willen, The Freehand stuff looks awesome. Ya man, that free had looks really good. this entire model looks nice! well done. Those Intense blue dry brushing on the cables on his arm are a nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those Intense blue dry brushing on the cables on his arm are a nice touch. Thanks guys! I no longer drybrush, find it too difficult to control, too messy. I prefered to pick out every muscle fiber there. I was also one of those steps where you think "I am going to ruin it" and then you love it. This model has been like that from the beginning of the painting phase... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willen Posted April 4, 2015 Author Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) I made a step-by-step of how I painted the above logo, which can be found following this post in G+: https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/105555275890220429229/albums/6133943668220764689 Explanations inserted as description on each pic. Hopefully those of you who want to do freehand but feel it out of our experience will realize how crappy it looks at the beginning, and how you need to stay with it and refine the whole thing Edit: do you guys feel it would be worthy of replicating this post in a separate thread to show off the little tut?

robinh Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 it would willen. The pictures look good but some words explaining what you did in each step and why would help guide others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willen Posted April 4, 2015 Author Share Posted April 4, 2015 it would willen. The pictures look good but some words explaining what you did in each step and why would help guide others. They don't show up? Every pic has text and explanations. As G+ shows it, it is to the right of the screen (very similar to how Facebook shows images).

robinh Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Sorry I just looked at the landing page which shows only the pictures and no text. Once you click on the first picture it exapnds and you see the associated text. I am not a normal user of goggle + so missed this step.

CashWiley Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Chroming out those letters, adding the colors to the logo, just some great work dude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willen Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks Cash. I have the metallic parts blocked in and ready for some TMM, but I am drawing a blank on the upper "fin". No idea on colors, designs, freehand... any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CashWiley Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Look at some inspiration material when you get stuck. Looks kind of like a tail fin from a plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willen Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Actually, to me it looks like some small fins the aircraft have on the upper chord, that house antennas. It also makes sense that is houses an antenna, or that it is a heat exhaust. Problem is, antenna fins are painted of the same color of the aircraft I might do it with the sand/ivory color of the other housings (arms, flamethrower) and add a little design in red to the trailing edge... mmm..
