PLAMO: Re-WiredWolf - Plastic Modelling, Share & Learn

Thanks fellas!

I just finished the weapons and here they are now. I have still have to do poses with this one as I have yet to acquire an action base. I do think that there will be too few poses it can do if it is just standing on the ground.













I simulated wear and tear on the coating of the blades to give it an impression that it cut through a few Leos ^^;






The knife gets the same weathering

Here's a photo comparison at how much different the Sandrock looks now compared to its original form.

OMG... I never like this kit until I see yours.... So much nicer and the weathering is awesome!!!

OMG!!!

The weathering is damn nice !!! Good Job man!

Nice weathering effect on the weapons.
Now it needs a kickass pose and base!

congrats on this build bro! really nice weathering on the shotels!

Thanks guys! I'm glad you liked the weathering

My eyes popped the first time I saw your sandrock! I never knew sandrock can be as nice as this!!

It's just drybrushed enamel chrome silver.

It is ok to describe what you did for the sword? Perhaps in more details? PLEASE!!

Sure! here it is:

1) Painted the whole weapon with TS-6 Matt Black (Tamiya spray can).
2) Masked off the blade and grip areas and painted over the unmasked parts with a custom mix of Dark gray.
3) Applied black wash and used a thinner moistened cotton swab to the dried wash to simulate grime/oil effect and then applied the decals (I know the decals should've been first but I had a memory lapse on this one).
4) Applied an overall flat coat.
5) Using Tamiya enamel chrome silver, I painted the edges first using a thin brush.
6) Using the same paint, I drybrushed the edge of blade where there will be most likely heavy wear (the outward curves) using a criss-cross stroke to simulate a hack-and-slash motion in the use of a blade.

Hope that helps
