Star Wars painting project

 A little project for my middle son, to fill out his model collection.


There were three in the group, an AT-M6, the Razor Crest and an Imperial Star Destroyer

 All came as basic grey plastic models, and I dressed them up with a base coat, a few layers of dark blue/grey.  Then did detailing.

Razor Crest was an interesting challenge
as I wanted to finish with a gun-metal
'slightly shiny' look



 



I found this neat pattern for the AT-M6 on a   

Japanese website, they used water transfers for the logos

I did them free hand with a brush
and included more metallic finish on these
back parts


the detail on the models made using a
dry-brush technique effective


I even managed to do an engine pattern
that I liked

the finished product looks good in any light

I have now four more models, mostly from Rogue One, now on the painting desk and will have them done very soon.  It looks like a move of home residence is very much in the offering.
