A shameless xpost from another thread but I wanted to share the results of playing with my airbrush and seeing the results of a cool metallic paint over large flat panels.
Here I’ve got the Redemptor Dreadnought covered first with Mr. Color Ueno Black, a very good gloss primer, that I thinned with the corresponding product from the same company. After the model sat for a little and dried, lacquer dries quite fast compared to acrylics, I then hit it all with MIG Ammo’s Bluish Titanium. That smeared a little on the glove as I tried to gingerly move the model during my basecoat phase. I’ve worked with this series of paint before and when they state leave it for 24hrs to dry completely they mean it. This means I have some time before I drop a layer of Warhead Metallic Blue over it with some masking for effect and the first gloss coat. I’m thinking of going back with silver and a brass layer before the panel lining and final gloss coat before soing the base.
