Star wars legion: Camper Van spring cleaning challenge 2023

With all main areas complete I took care of the details.

Firstly I painted the cables with Averland sunset, have them a sepia wash and highlighted with flat yellow.

For the front grill and top grills I simply edge highlighted the black/grey with white grey

For the engines, I airbrushed the innards white then dry brushed black on the raised grills and outer edges. Then a simple blue glaze on outer bits of white. For the metal on the side grills and fun barrels I used a base of ‘the fang’ inked with dark tone then gradually highlighted up blending the fang’ with sky blue to create a rugged NMM effect.

Ok the grills I then used more streaking grime to represent the whatever oily residue oozes out as a by product of their crystal meth production (it all goes to fund the rebel war effort against the Space Tories to I’m all for it!)

I wasnt entirely happy with the rust patches at this point so I added a very thin layer of black line around the larger ones to give them a bit more definition

Finally the base was just PVA and sand with air brushed flat earth then dry brush of Iraqi sand. I added some army painter Tufts and battlefield rocks as well as static grass. Most of this won’t be seen as it’s under the camper van, but I’ll always remember my grandma saying ‘don’t forget to wear underwear in case you get knocked over. I’m taking her advice.

Just the driver to do now!
