Bot War - Painting Challenge 2023
Day 1 - It has begun
OK, here we go.
To kick things off the Atlantican tanks, fliers, Omen and CRAB got an airbrushing of metals.
Over the black primer went a basecoat of Vallejo black metal. This was then layered up with vallejo Gun Metal, and then they got a final highlight of Vallejo Chrome. This is a very basic 3-stage NMM workup that will provide all of the models a solid base and cover up any primer.
This was changed up a bit for the fliers, Omen & CRAB as the gun metal had some metal color gold added, and the chrome had some brass to increase the warmth. The reason for doing this is to increase some subtle variety amongst the units and to match up with their bot-form counterparts I painted back in 2021.
