Ive had a chance to work on my Arizona, its kinda crazy because I thought I had it completed along time ago, but since I have become more serious about modeling I have found out that there is so much more to do! I have since my last post lightly painted in the port holes, and also applied Vallejo Washes, now since the Arizona was at Pearl Harbor and was well taken care of, I depicted it with very little to no weathering, however due to inexperience I found that as TRM mentioned the Vallejo washes dry very fast, if anyone uses these I would recommend only attempting one side at a time! Although im sure most know this already! Honestly Im sure I added alittle to much rust! Oops! :-X ,
This actually took about 3 hours, between two days and a few applications and
cleaning and reapplying to get it to where it looked decent but it added so much
character i was impressed! I used Vallejo Rust and Grey Washes, anyone have any
more suggestons for other colors of wash? any other are areas I should use these
Washes on? any other areas of the hull I should redo or does it look correct?
Any further suggestions on detailing I would apperciate it! This ship is my first
fully completed example and im using it as a experience platform for future
ship models. Thanks for looking!
Kind Regards
Shawn
