Re: Painting and weathering HUGE 1:6 Maybach Panzer engines
Very well done, beautiful!
Amazing work.
I designed up some for fdm in 1/16 but due to size and process they are simple and lack details.
These resin engines look great.
Very impressive and I can imagine how much time it took to draw.

Masking
Quickmask.
First paint!
Another quickmask
Finished the flat color
After shading with Panzergrau
1:16 was my scale. Until 'Konan' came into my life... an Armortek 1:6 Tiger 1!
... Now followed by a Panther G, 'Gunther'!
I'm a happy man.

"The trick is to dab it on. You should use a stiff, short-haired brush." Ah, a stippling effect with Mr. Surfacer 500: what a great idea! Thank you!

Re: Painting and weathering HUGE 1:6 Maybach Panzer engines
I m really impressed by this post. Since a long time, I search what colors use to paint engines. Now, I found the good post.
Thank you very much. It is clear and with good explanations.
The bergepanther owner has a video on Youtube with a bergepanther crush a sherman tank and a little boat? It is an armortek panther transformed in a bergepanther?

Then you'll like it even more painted like this:
You're right! I do like it even more! It's amazing how a cool, but nondescript lump of plastic can be transformed into something so lifelike! Outstanding job!
Cheers,

That's my video, the Bergepanther is owned by a friend, the other one is mine. Armortek built 20 Bergepanthers, no conversion needed.FredtheFrench wrote: The bergepanther owner has a video on Youtube with a bergepanther crush a sherman tank and a little boat?

Re: Painting and weathering HUGE 1:6 Maybach Panzer engines
Very strange . I spoke in comments on YT, with someone who said he was owner and said to me than it was a panther transformed in bergepanther, because all 20 models of bergepanther was sold...

Re: Painting and weathering HUGE 1:6 Maybach Panzer engines
After shading that small part I decided the whole engine could use some shading!
For replicating the 'metal' effect on the parts I used my trusty tootbrush again for some drybrushing
And soms dust
F#ck it, let's put it everywhere haha!
