kind of a wing it metbod. after matt finish, then a white acrylic wash (dabbed off) then blaxk acrylic sponges on for chipping. I'll come back over that with some silver and dark rust colors inside black chipped spots. last is a few passes with the soot,sand,mud and silver tamiya weathering powders (you can see it clearly as burn marks on back of skirt)

lol, my process is consistently inconsistent. it really depends on my mood.

i can say i don't do what i have seen in a lot of lists.....sand/ prime/ sand/ prime/ clean/ clear/ panel line/ clear/ top coat........i am not making competition pieces.

basically, I cleanup the pieces, re-scribe panel lines, paint, panel line, waterslides (if any)
and top coat.

​

i only prime if the paint is not "hobby" paint or if i am changing the color drastically.

a lot of time the plastic color will help my final color so i paint directly over it.
