Joshua_Rose Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 ...To clarify, I asked for it unpainted, that element at least is down to me, so don't blame HS if you don't like the paint-job... Updated photo' at urban: Link to post Share on other sites
heroshark Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Its alive . I was inspired by thees photos and daríwings, I wanted to add "Ray-Ban" goggles too It's not as shiny as on the photos... but too shiny for me... so if I will have an opportunity I'll make it matte by using sandblowing(?) Looks great bud. It'll do yo better than a sykes. As for the paint I like to use tamiya ,or humbrol model paints you use for the little army models .They have a realy nice matte finish Updated photo' at urban: Looking good buddy. I was hopeing to bump into you at that new sheffeild site but Its too close to new baby day. Oh yeah, Rich what you up to? I'm getting impatient Link to post Share on other sites
Triggerhappychappy Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Murdoc- some fine wire wool will dull the shine quite nicely without removing much/any paint if you go gently, working in circles around the mask. Link to post Share on other sites

That's a good idea, it's also useful in ageing... Looks great bud. It'll do yo better than a sykes. As for the paint I like to use tamiya ,or humbrol model paints you use for the little army models .They have a realy nice matte finish That's also good beacuse I have to buy black spray to paint tiger stripe on my"belt kit"... You over"paint" with transparent acrylate(epoxy) on the tamya colors; do you? Link to post Share on other sites

You over"paint" with transparent acrylate(epoxy) on the tamya colors; do you? no, if you paint over it with epoxy you'll get the shine back .Unless you do that then wire wool .The model paints are surprisingly hard wearing without adding a protective layer.

my_plague_666 Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I was inspired by thees photos and daríwings, I wanted to add "Ray-Ban" goggles too what you need is to get a cheap set of aviators, pop the lenses out and stick the frame on there. maybe a high gloss black finished set of lenses made from very fine mesh (just for cosmetics) Link to post Share on other sites

Scuffer Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Can't recommend Heroshark enough! Sent my Bolle Trackers off to him on Monday, they arrived and I paid via Paypal on Tuesday (£12). Glasses arrvied back at mine this morning, meshed! Very impressed with how neatly they are done, how solid they feel and the good service I got from him. Here's a quick piccy. Link to post Share on other sites
