From MattT. Couple of vehicles, VBCW

This week i have managed to complete a couple of 3D printed vehicles i picked up on ebay.

I find it hard to paint large areas of flat colour, and the quality of the prints is not a smooth as metal, especially on the curves. Took a bit of work but overall i am happy with the results. 
I have never used an airbrush. One day i should give it a try as people have amazing results with them, especially on vehicles, but i painted thse with my tried and tested brushes.

The first one is an improvised armoured lorry. I used a rust powder on the large steel areas, and after some trial and area managed to get a good effect.



The second vehicle is a civilian car, it will probably get used as table dressing rather than as a transport.

Stay safe. Matt
