Paint Brand and Model | Tamiya ps and rd paint by painting on the outside I was able to achieve the level of detail and weathering I was looking for. Starting with Tamiya ps flat clear I was able to use a Tamiya TS paint deck hull red as my rust base. I then sprayed white, and back sanded it to reveal the rust color underneath. I added a layer of salt to resist the final color to give it a pitted affect and added some washes to deepen the weathering finally I flat cleared the whole body to seal it in. |
