1. He got a white undercoat:
2. He got painted silver from head to toe.
I don't usually mess with an undercoat, but silver paint is a weird thing. It's very watery. It's almost like water with little metallic flakes mixed in. Without an undercoat, the silver paint seems to absorb into wood as many times as I care to brush it on. The white provides a barrier. Even with the white undercoat, it took 3 coats of silver before it looked evenly coated.
Tomorrow I'll do the detailing.
KW,
ReplyDeleteI love your robot making; it's inspirational enough to make me want to go out to several hobby stores, buy some stuff and try to do something...anything myself. I admire your skill and imagination.
I discovered your coolness via our mutual friend Mykal (over at the Gold Key & Big Blog of Kid's Comics blogs)
