Ernesto, so when it comes time to puttin' all these parts together, you're gonna' be handlin' 'em and leavin' greasy fingermarks on your paintwork. Unless you use a cotton glove, huh?!

Great progress as always, man.

Beautiful work, Ernest.

What is your technique with the metallics?!

 

[Ernest]

Hello Paul and thanks, for the metals I used several techniques like acrylics, oils and printer ink, in this case I used first a mix of Black + english uniform, adding lights with golden brown, then I used some oil like raw umber and blak for some tones and shading, for the extreme lights I used Gold printer ink, the gold printer ink also can be use mixing with oils...
hope this helps any question be free to do it
regards
ER

 

[paulyrichard]

Thanks, Ernest.

I really need to adopt a similar technique. Are 'Golden Brown' and 'English Uniform', Vallejo colours?

Regards, Paul.

 

[Ernest]

Yes Paul, all my acrylics colors are from Vellejo...
Here I post some new pics with a bit progress, now I added some scratches and dirt over the knees...
