This is what I painted today. I've used this technique for fades a couple times now and it has yet to disappoint. Looking forward to shooting clear tomorrow and getting this thing finished.
Spaced Out.
This thing fought me tooth and nail, but I finally got it finished. It was painted and repainted about a half dozen times due to various issues with paint and airbrush. It took a couple months to get it all sorted out, but the final piece was worth the effort and the trials. It looks incredible and I am stoked. The space portions came out better than expected and the silver leaf makes them pop perfectly.
This is what the test panel the other day was for. I'm taking the custom diecast game to the next level. The next step for this is a full mask up for a silver leaf line around the space block.
I finished up another piece the other day. Really pleased with how it came out. It also helped me get comfortable with laying down tape designs.
