Title: helmet paint Post by: voodoo on March 31, 2010, 05:53:36 PM As ive now finished my chops paint I decided to have a play at painting one of my old open face lids.....
As I am still very new to airbrushing it pretty basic and nowhere near the stuff Clive can turn out, but as a first attempt I am happy enough lol.. I have painted it in Pearl Panther Black and the Design is in Mercedes Silver Black.....its my first go at trying to ghost something in so its subtle yet still visable....I am only at the waiting for lacquer to go off stage but tomorrow I shall compound and polish it and post some pics....Voodoo...

Title: Re: helmet paint Post by: VmaxTriker on April 02, 2010, 02:56:53 PM Looks good to me.. did you use a stencil or do it free hand?
Title: Re: helmet paint Post by: voodoo on April 02, 2010, 03:51:17 PM Its always a bit of both lol...I am still learning so a lot of the airbrush stuff I do is very basic, I tend to make up a stencil for the main shape then freehand a lot of the details in.....Voodoo....
