Imperial Knight, day 14 - more details...

More checks to be painted in and a bit of weathering on the metal parts.





Of other hobby-related work I picked up a parcel at the postoffice with a bottle of both matt and gloss varnish for the airbrush, and I also made it to the local hobby shop to get some DecalFix. I really look forward to getting some of those decals in place...

  1. Applying Inks/Tints via Airbrush over white will give a great result.

    Otherwise, practice using glazes a lot.

  2. Pretty much as Fleet described it: Practice with layering it on thinly and neatly. For the yellow I went over the areas (including the black checks) with a thin glaze 3 times. Just brush it on and control the paint so you don't get pools of paint. Remember that it is not a wash. It is more akin to a transparent tinted layer in Photoshop.
