Sorry all I haven't been making the large updates like I was in the beginning.
I have now moved on to the front cheeks. I am about 1 coat away from being done with them. Ohh and I am still taking timelapses, I just wanted to put the painting video together as one video (I will probably break it apart) It is currently around 60,000 pictures right now.
My method:
1. White Base coat (it is a Humbrol Gray, but it turned out white)
2. Silver Coat, as the actual base coat (meaning no "weathering" through it)
-- RafelFett Templates has a bright silver, light gray, and dark gray. I combined light gray and silver into one color to make it easier and because I didn't have the other color
3. Dark Gray
4. Mask off upper cheeks and the silver and gray with maskol
5. Paint green (currently where I am in this process, I am letting it dry)
6. Mask off lower portion
7. Mask off the silver and gray
8. Paint Upper Cheeks
Notes:
- I for some reason purchased WAY too many Humbrol 76 instead of 78, so I guess I will be touching up my armor with it
- I have been having good luck going almost 2:1 thinner to paint just ensure that you turn the pressure way down as well
- The printable stencils were all printed to big and I am too cheap to resize them
- I love my Badger air brush it is a joy to use
