Material: Resin
Description
Printed on Elegoo Mars at 108% original size solid using Elegoo's grey resin.
Airbrushed and hand painted using Vallejo acrylics and pigments.
The heavily abbreviated painting workflow is as follows:
The main bodywork was primed in grey followed by Vallejo's 'light turquoise' which was darkened slightly on subsequent coats. On the bodywork rust, oil streaks and other imperfections were added using blacks/browns.
Hands and other metal areas were undercoated using black primer followed by gloss black and then metallic black. Which was then lightly hand painted with a coat of Vallejo 'rust', almost to the point of it becoming a wash. Metallic rust and finally a Vallejo pigment 'rust' was used for areas of heavy rust. Such as the feet, the areas below the leg rubber gaiters, in crevices in the hands, and a dozen other little nooks, you get the idea.
The rubber gaiters were painted primed black, then painted gloss black, 'rust' pigment was worked into the cracks and wiped off to create a slightly dirty look. You could also use practically any brownish colour, applied lightly, and rubbing the excess off.
For masking i used vallejos liquid mask and a lot of tape. I hate you tape ;)
Stands tall at 20.5cm tall.
Thanks ever so much Dan for taking the time to design the model. Especially by splitting him up into easily printable parts, which makes hiding any imperfections created by support material far less difficult.
