That's cool and very rusty!  I like your detail work on everything.  Maybe print out a few more labels or packing materials to add to the awesome paint work.  I found some cool M.n.u. Posters and some cat food labels lol

Man those shanties are tiny and packed with detail.  Great work!

Looking great!

You need some AK-Interactive streaking grime in your life! It really helps this sort of thing 'pop'.

But blimey, very detailed.  :)

Thanks everyone! three more are on the workbench, plus other 4, shaped but not done yet...

What is the corrogated iron made from ?

It's a slater sheet. I'm gonna buy some of them quite soon!

Lovely scenery! Have you got the District 9 art book?

I have seen some pictures of it online! seems very interesting, but i'm looking for a more generic style... d9-ish, but not too strict! ^^

Many other details will be also printed in Frosted Ultra detail! But no photos, i'm lazy :d

Aaaand.. they arrived! For tonight i'll just show a picture of the walls. Those have been scratched just for show, i'll be sculpt some better ones for "commercial" purpose!




I'll leave the rest for the next days... but here's also some doors, bills and other stuff:



Goodnight,

After a year of sleep, it's time to nechrothread this project!


i made a few more shanti buildings, and i managed to paint one. After a rust color primer i applied the hair spray, then a layer of light gray:





After the paint dried, i did the chipping with some hard brushes. Then, i applied some light washes on the panels, to change their colors.
Of course i could have painted the panels before the chipping, adding a thick layer of the new color, but when removing the layers for the chipping the white background could pop out. This way it's safer.





Then, a protective spray layer and ... OILS.
That was a mistake, and i won't use them anytime soon for my other shanti buildings.The corrugated panels kept a lot of pigment, and the result was ways too dark.





With a good softbox and lights i managed to take some decent photos but... the next buildings will be better, i hope.









Any opinion is strongly welcomed, especially if it's a suggestion for the painting of my next pieces!
Cheers!

Jack

Looking good. I agree it got a little dark, but the chipping effect worked well at least! Maybe go back and add a few dabs of a lighter rust red in some of the "worst" spots once the chipping is done? The rust colour is just a little too even, given the larger areas of rust you have, I think. If it was just dots here or there, less variation is fine, but broad areas need a greater range of tones.

The oil paint wouldn't 'wash off' with thinner while you were working on the piece?
