A little step away from my usual ancient stuff
This one which was unearthed in a dark corner in the house for some 20 years

Made a start on the painting of the leather jacket .
Usual primers and an Undercoat of Tamya wood deck tan applied with airbrush left to dry overnight
and a top coat of Burnt Umber oils ,same as the boots ,then lifted off with fresh dry brushes to allow the undercoat to shine thru a bit .


Usual probs with camera and uploading pics
Ron

Great start, Ron!
Thanks a lot for the jacket tip! Looks great so far!
Will follow closely!
Cheers,

The A2 turned out very realistic using that method Ron. It has just the right amount of sheen too . Are you going to paint any 'nose art' on the back? You know, one of those scantily clad dames .

Joe

nice looking jacket painted the jacket on stormtrooper's scots fusilier this morning in a very similar way with the addition of yellow ochre highlights.

Never thought of that

Very nice Ron, thanks for the ezmode leather tip

Billy

Brian

Leather looks really good. Great tip how to paint it!

Hope they were the good old make-up brushes you were using to 'lift' off the excess oil paint Ron T

Great leather work.

Marc

I have to agree Ron, the leather looks the dogs round un's buddy!

Carl
