Infinity Terrain
Side step for a car
So I decided I would be painting all day and not doing terrain. My wife had other ideas and made me go shopping. Before we went I was on the infinity UK Facebook group (cheating on BOW). A guy seen a picture of a great scaled model car and was looking for the store it was purchased from. Everyone commented on where they thought it came from, it was perfect in everyway and I don’t have those stores near me. I found it in Tesco…
The toy car set in tesco was £5 I dont like the truck it seems like a smaller scale but may (will) have other uses for it later. 
I took apart the car with a screw driver it's a metal body and axel the rest is plastic. Sanded the body with 600 then 1000 grit sandpaper I couldn't get into the right curves so used a rotary tool with a wire brush on it to get in. Sprayed matt black. cut off the made in china and test marks on the bottom sanded and sprayed again matt black. I had to sand some of the scratched canopy sanded in 1000 - 2000 grit and then used T-cut and cork to buff back to clear. I then cleaned and back sprayed with white blue and dark blue . I also done orange yellow and white on the headlamp section. I pulled off the tyres and used gun metal on the alloy wheels and done. -

The semi finished car. (enough to use but I will do more later)So I will be getting a couple more of these. They are the car of my tiny little dreams. It’s so perfect in scale but it distracted me from painting further than the shopping trip that’s the only downside.
Oh well off to eat the food I got.
More to come if I can stop painting and distracting myself.
Now it just needs some racing stripes.
Possibly the next one, I need to get back down to Tesco before the news is out. 🙂
Top paintjob as usual.
On the other hand PanO must pay good money to their military personnel if even Bolts drive sports cars.
And side note: I’m not sure if it is photo, speckling airbrush or maybe some dust on the door window, but either way I’ve recently learned (from some YT tutorial) that citadel layer Ceramite White doesn’t speckle through airbrush (of course after some thinning) and can attest to that after trying it out.
Thanks! Pano are loaded only the best. Speaking of the speckling it did happen, this was not on purpose but did serve one. I didn’t thin down my paint as much as a normally would. I was scared that as I was spraying on a glossy non keyed surface it would pool, run or spider. I have a spare canopy and may try thinning down and upping the pressure and go very light on the flow. Dosnt look too bad, only a bit but think I can improve on it. I still cant bring myself to give the industry big… Read more »
That is really minor thing, no need to do anything.
As for citadel, I’m with you, out of roughly 150-200 paints, I have 3 from them (two technical and that whote).
