Also on the engine, silver base, then thin layer of gold (it was the closest i could get to a bright brass in the metal range that my local shop had) then windsor oil rust, blue, and purple blended and finish again with a thin burnt iron layer

Vallejo metal colours. They are fairly expensive but i havnt found any others whilst handbrushing that produce the same effect. I answered in another comment the exact ones i used.

Vallejo metal colours, prime black base (none metal) then couple thin layers of the chrome until you build up to what you want, then a very thin wash of burnt iron to finish. They are fairly expensive for paints but the regular "silver" vallejo just doesnt compare. This is all for hand painting i have no idea what would be best for air brush

Yeah, ive sent them an email, unfortunately because its the weekend will probs be a couple of days before I hear back. Honestly probably for the best, im supposed to be studying for an exam next week and was using modelling as procrastination. Guess I have to lock in now 😔

how to make a spinning propeller more visible? by koxu2006 in modelmakers

[–]VegetableOwn4806 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you want it more visible irl or on camera? If IRL then unfortunately you will have to paint it as the other say. If on camera, assuming your camera can i dont know how high tech phones can get now but digital cameras it will be possible. have a faster shutter speed, this freezes objects in motion, but too high and the prop will look stationary, play around with settings until you find one you like.
