A buddy of mine modeled and 3d printed this 1:12 scale Star Wars N1-Starfighter from the Mandalorian and asked me if I wanted to paint it for May 4th. The size was a little overwhelming and a fun challenge, at 1:12 scale it fits a six inch Star Wars Black Series Mandalorian figure as well as the SH Figuarts figure. This custom paint job was primarily silver paint, tons of black washes and weathering. I will show the steps I took to paint and weather this amazing 1:12 Scale Star Wars N1-Starfighter from season 3 of the Mandalorian.
HAPPY MAY THE 4th!
I hope you enjoy this "how to" video of this custom Star Wars N1-Starfighter 1:12 scale paint job!
Thanks for visiting DR Toys, and as always...

I love your approach to weathering David. It’s so simple and effective. I’ve watched countless videos on weathering planes and tanks and it becomes a science! Some presenters make it appear so difficult, but you make weathering approachable for all levels of builders. Thanks mate. ❤️

@@DRToysCreations Yep. Spot on! Your approach gets the same result. As an aside, have you ever watched ‘Nightshift’? He’s a Russian guy (?) who does amazing dioramas and tanks, etc. Wow! The Da Vinci of modeling and dioramas. Thanks once again for your great videos. I’m from Australia by the way.

Dave, I just thought I’d share that you have fired me up and I’ve spent a few hours in the local $2 shop getting supplies. I’m also looking at the lids of shampoo bottles, bits and pieces around the house, and bought some Fantastic 4 figures and a Batman. The lady at the desk thought I was nuts because she asked if they were for me. I don’t tell fibs, so told her what I was going to do. She wished me luck. I am a tank and plane modeller, so have lots of insignias and extra bits left over which I can use. Even tank tracks! Even my wife is rolling her eyes…but isn’t surprised! 😁 Thanks Dave. ❤️

Very nice, just found your channel, I like what you do, thumbs up. I'm a modeler myself, and I light my builds, and I know that adding light just adds another layer of Oh God what have I done, lol but I love it, adds so much life, and for me it was a shame to see something so big not lighted, but that's okay, not everyone's cup of tea. Another old school trick, I have tons, anyway, to get a true metal polished like a car waxed look, or an old shine, a new dryer sheet. Gently rub on after you finally clear coat that's glossy or flat, glossy will shine up like new wax and flat will give an old shine look. It's an old Hollywood miniatures trick they used on model set cars that needed to look hand waxed. Today's clear coats I guess are shiny enough but the dryer sheet still gives it a interesting look. Anyway, yeah I'd add lights so much room. I'm slowly working on a 1:2500 scale (I know right) lighting Nx-01 star trek Enterprise. Working with Pecos lol super tiny. THIS IS THE WAY.

@DRToysCreations Жыл бұрын

Dryer sheet!!! Wow, I totally need to try that! So because this was a paint job for a buddy I was just focused on doing the paint job, I'm no master at LEDs so definitely something I want to get better at...
