So I Photoshopped it on. Now the left is how I originally envisaged it, but the right is how Titans would see it. I can't decide which would be better. Regardless I'd need printable decal paper if I wanted to go down this route.
I was also speculating about a number in the centre of the quartered heraldry on the front.
And yes, a big number 1 will make that look better.
I bit the bullet and went with red lenses on the tank hatches, but they seem a bit lost. Do you think green ones would be better?
Green ones?
Red lense on the Multi-melta sill stay red.
Orange and red lenses on the heavy flamers. I'm not sure I want to Tamiya Clear them...
I'll lose some of the effect if I do.
The lights will definitely have Tamiya Clear Red X-27 added, but the lenses don't seem to need it, just a drop of gloss varnish.
This light will also be Tamiya Clear Red X-27.
And the back, still debating whether to add orange weathering powder in the grooves of the tracks.
Those flamer lenses are perfect, I wouldn't touch them! I do like the green lenses though, the red (as you have said) gets a little lost. This is looking awesome, mate. I hope you can get those decals working.
ReplyDeleteI hope so too. I've printed a test on paper and will tweak it a few times. It's supposed to be a decal you then back in the oven - for like putting on a mug. But I think after the water slide and varnish it should still be safe... Just need to get access to my laser printer. The paper itself was about £5 for 5 sheets of A4. Obviously I'm not going to use all of one so I'll have to be careful how I cut it out and fingers crossed I can reuse the first sheet again.
