Knight of Heaven - Nuts Planet 1/9

J:J · 2025-02-27T07:22:38-0600

Hi all. I’ve just completed this nice bust from Nuts Planet, 1/9, painted in acrylics. I used colors from AK Interactive 3GEN, Scale 75 and Vallejo as well as AK's True Metal. It was my first encounter with the latter, but definately not the last. I apologize for the mediocre picture quality, but I'm working on a better photo setup, so hopefully it will be better at some point soon.

Super stuff. Please share with me how you acheived the metal finishes. I do use the AK True Metals ones, but I'm not sure I'm getting the best out of them.

Nice job, personally I like to work with true metal and oil washes.
Well done.
Santi.

Thanks for your kind comments!

@Blind Pew: I'm no expert on True Metal, but first of all, I smoothened the paste by stirring it with a popsickle stick. Then I applied it very little by little with a flat brush, almost as if I was dry brushing, to avoid brush stokes (which I didn't avoid completely). When dried up, I polished with a soft cloth and finally added some shading and weathering using Metal Polishing Powder from Uschi Van Der Rosten and a burnt umber oil wash.
