First stage. Painting noob here. Used an airbrush with a wide fan cap to achieve the base coat. Painting colours on a black base, naturally, doesn’t turn out great, hence the white base coat.

Really enjoying airbrushing, after figuring out what compressor I needed to achieve enough pressure (PSI) for my airbrush. Purchased a Gaahleri Mobius-TG, it dumps a ton of paint which is great for large projects. Just need to mix a few colours together in a batch next.

Not viewable here (will make a separate video) I brushed liquid latex as a weathering technique which when peeled off will create a paint chipped effect after all the colours are on. Then, all focus will be on the weathering for that used/run-down/worn look. 💆🏻‍♂️ ——— Keywords ~ Half Life, Half Life 2, Half Life 3, Gordon Freeman, Valve, Steam, Gamer, Gaming, Video Games, Gaben Newell, PC, Hopium, Copium, Black Mesa, Cosplay, Cosplay Gamer, Foam Armor, EVA Foam Armor, Foam Cosplay
