I have these two kits in a box in my stash, waiting, which was my reason for watching this interesting video. This is the first time I have seen anything related to the Bandai (and other brands) Star Wars kits hand painted. I have to admit that at first I didn't think it would turn out very good. I am pleased to say how wrong I was. The method of painting you have used here is really suited to this duo kit. The result speaks for itself, as well as what you said a number of times about you wanting to have fun building them both. Clearly you had fun, which is important, and I think it looks great. Pleased to hear your brother liked it too.

i recently hand painted the star destroyer and it was a great way to get back into painting models. really hard to mess it up

Star Wars has quite a few interesting vehicles, personally, I'm sympathetic to the Empire...

You did a fantastic job on both of these. I really liked the drybrushed darker spots on the death star 2 because of how soft you got the paint to look, and I plan on using your method to potentially try out a dry brushing a light-edged camouflage as well. I hope your older brother liked the models!

Thank you, I appreciate your kind words. I hope you have some fun with the over-brushing technique on the camouflage. Yes! he did love the two models.

As I'm new to this, I really appreciate this video. Somehow your technique seems super agreeable to me. As I progress, I'm really enjoying the project more and more. Thanks man. (Edit)....I like the addition to blue to the exterior. Anything "space related" seems to incorporate, for the most part, black, white and hues of blue. Well chosen and well done!

I’m sure you’ll make it look great. It’s not a complicated piece to build/paint, so for someone who’s never painted a model should have no worries. Good luck and happy painting. :-)

And don’t be afraid of screwing up, then learning from mistakes. When I was a kid, I didn’t do well with that and models (also craved perfection). As an adult, I try to do better. Practicing on cheapo kits also good.

Hi, I’d be interested in seeing a portion of your brushing in real time to see your technique, if you’d be willing (stroke direction, brush tip use, etc.) prior to the sped-up sequence. I plan to use your tips painting this little kit soon-thanks for sharing!

Hi thanks for the video. I’m new and wondering if you have any recommendations for types of brushes to buy?

@Modkits131 Жыл бұрын

Royal and Langnickel or Winsor and Newton brushes. For starters you can go with cheap synthetic brushes as a beginner.

@pauka13 2 жыл бұрын

this is amazing! I think the soap helps to break the surface tension of the water so the wash flows much better into the fine deails. Btw. how much soap do you add to the mix and what kind of soap is usable for this method?

@Modkits131 2 жыл бұрын

I always try and make I have a little bit more soap than paint and water. Try this ratio, 2 parts water 5 parts paint and 7 parts soap. I also have used dawn green soap and the soap pump from some of my videos, which is from equate. :)

Where do you get this model kit? I would like to get one along with the paints. Can you tell me what colors you used so I can make it like you did

@Modkits131 23 күн бұрын

I found it in a hobby lobby store or find it near your local hobby shop. Some black and white paint is all you really need for the model. Maybe with a hint of blue for preference.

@tino897 Жыл бұрын

I’m thinking of buying a bigger model. How do you suggest to make the shadows and paint it in general with a brush as it’s quite bigger than this

@Modkits131 Жыл бұрын

1: You can base the first layer in a dark gray or black color. Then add layer after layer until you have a decent shadow. Using which ever method of painting you prefer. 2: Or paint the model in a light gray and tone it down gradually with dark grays and black washes. Hope this helps you. :)

Is there a tutorial regarding the soap wash technique.

@Modkits131 2 жыл бұрын

At the moment I do not. But plan to have one in the future. Something to remember it by: More soap than paint when mixing. My best example of this soap wash is on the AT-M6 personally. Or in a rough ratio here: 6 drops paint, 10 drops water and 8 drops soap. Hope this helps. :-)

@belfast4893 2 жыл бұрын

@@Modkits131 I see thank you. Does any soap work, and do you just let the soap paint naturally dry or use a tissue/q tip to soak up extra paint ?

@Modkits131 2 жыл бұрын

From my experience Equate soap and Dawn dish soap have worked for me. But this may differ for you of course. Let the soap wash naturally dry and then take a damp Q-tip or paper towel to remove the excess.

How did you prime the inside with it put together?

I primed the interior black with a brush. But it probably would have been better before fully building it on retrospect.

@@Modkits131 I did just like did. You can barely tell where my brush couldn’t reach but it’s coming out nice. Following your instructions with Tamiya paints. I have to mix some other grays for panels. I used Tamiya Sky Gray with a bit of Sky Blue for base color and it has that bit of blue you were talking about . Looks nice👍

Can I use a primer while the parts are on the sprues and then assemble the model?

You can. But it will bring some difficulty in assembling the model. But it’s up to you if you choose to go that route. Nothing wrong in doing it. :)

You may encounter constant sanding and scraping off paint on sections of the model. As well as using super glue when you should just be using liquid cement.
