Re: KV-1
To be honest even the Matt paints can sometimes dry satin if we don’t quite get the mix right for the airbrush. Which is good for a wet mud look. Not so much for dust or sand
It’s your tank it’s what you make it
Re: KV-1
The special thing here is that I am using oik paint togehter with a specil curing aid. Mine is a satin agent, but they sell it matt, satin and gloss. I might get the matt one day, as satin dust would look rather silly. Oils are definitely an interesting option for those wanting to do color modulation without an airbrush.

Re: KV-1
Well it looks like it working and blends quite well so could be worth a go on my is3 if I ever Finnish it

Re: KV-1
It's tedious, but I am really getting to like the behaviour of oil paints. Especially the gradients in the colors on the fender mounted boxes turned out nicely. The front got some more interesting streaky variations and shading.

It’s certainly coming along. Will look good in a summer based setting I think

Re: KV-1
Hey guys, thank you so much for your kind comments. I can now report having finished the base coat. Did some work to the fenders and an extra time on the wheels and quickly put it together for finishing the second chapter.
