Great video Solander. It's great to see the face behind the name and you’re showed a really cool technique.
If you will have a chance give those Ak-Interactive chipping fluids a try as they are great
Cheers and I'm looking forward to a next update from you

Thank you a lot, gentlemen!
Here is he second part - fading the chipping down and some decoloration with acrylic filters:
Chipping Techniqe 2 - Fading with Acrylic Filters
The third video is in production already - it will deal with washes and, maybe, the oil fading.
Hoping to see you among the viewers

Okay, I have seen the term "filter" thrown around here a bit lately.
What is it? A wash?

I wasn't sure either, Mike, but that's exactly what Sol is showing us in the vid.
Sol, that's another excellent tutorial. I think it looks alot of fun.

Absolutely. Great video and great build man.
Thank you very much, guys!
And yep, the main idea of the filter is the consistence and the fact that no matter how much you thin the paint, you still will receive the traces of it on the hull. Barely visible - but that's the intention, to slightly change the tone here and there without total repainting.
I have prepared the third video for you, just waiting now to complete all the washing in order to include the pictures of the technique's results along with the video about it.

So looking forward to it. You know there really is nothing good to watch on American TV so the videos here are at least educational to us hobbyists.

Glor, that's excactly how I feel about TV here in the UK. Well there's Game of Thrones, but I'm not watching that until I've finished the book!
I probably watch more youtube and online documentaries/parodies/reviews than TV these days.

Same here. We just 'slashed' the programming on the sat. dish down to bare minimum. TV doesn't offer too much that interests us...

Yes GofT has been great....last weeks episode was the best to date.Igard said:
Agreed with all above, guys.
Seems to me, that the todays nature of TV makes it be stupid whatever country is in consideration.
Only 2 now-running shows stop me from throwing the TV-set out of the flat completely: the Game of Thrones and the Castle (which is unfortunately getting dull with each new episode, on the contrary to the GofT - 2nd season started not to bright, but the last episode was extremely interesting, I'll agree with Glorfindel)
Too bad there are no good running sci-fi shows anymore, like Trek or BSG. And even Blood and Chrome seems never to get it to the blue screen. Can't really understand, what those boses of tv-companies thinking with. Whythrwing on us all that crap - like skyfall or that tera-nova (maybe they thought that people would be interested in "yet another Lost clone, but now with dinos included"?!). The result is always the same - 1 season of complete questions and unspoken moments, which barely gets any awedience and then the closing. 100% for the best, but why all the faulty effort in the first place??

Alright, finally I've complete all the washing both on the inside and the outside of the vehicle, the figures and other stuff.
The clone trooper installing the demolition charge received the charge itself.
I've also gave about 4 layer of differently colored washes to the base, which were followed by the oil fading and some drybrushing an then oil fading again. All in all, I've been playing with this piece of rock for hours until finally I've received the desired realistic and movie-fitting look.
And here is the video I've devoted to using washes techniques for finishing the models:
Washing
It turned out a little bit long, hope You guys won't be bored
