Petit’gguy Strayblack and Catcos

[sandboarder]

Took some annual leave so while I’m on holidays I hope to build this. Ok so it won’t take long to build but I’ll use my airbrush on this one. Never painted anything with an airbrush (only 2 spoons at Luke’s) Here’s the bulk of what I have for it. Plan is silverbase cost, pick 2 colours and then clear coat. So fingers crossed it works out.

Take you time with it, you need to put light coats on first even if its a bit patchy its Ok slowly build up the coat of paint, crossed good luck with it you will wonder why you have not use a Airbrush before. yes!

[Luke]

you will be right mate.
Best way to learn is to have a go and figure it out as you go along.
You will like that brand of paint and thinners its excellent, but wear a mask its potent shit.

you will wonder why you have not use a Airbrush before.

Done the pin mod and split them all



Built up the Catcos. I got half way and realise it has all the Bear parts for Strayblack, of course it’s a 2 in 1 with the kits name





I’ll probably build it up aaa Bear, I have colours in mind. Now to strip, prep and get ready for painting. Told the missus I want to buy an ultrasonic cleaner and she already had one !!

All ready for primer tomorrow



Here’s all the tools used so far.

Got a good start on things, going to be interesting to see how you paint it weather will be good for painting next couple days.

Told the missus I want to buy an ultrasonic cleaner and she already had one !!

Bonus and she even let you use it

Bonus big time!! Saved me $60 for other stuff now

One black bear in primer now. crossed for a play with the airbrush tomorrow

[Luke]

Doesnt matter what it is, everything looks great painted 1500 black

The whole process took me about 90 minutes from tidy up to clean up.







About a 50/50 mix and 20psi







Only 3 more colours and a clear coats to go now yes! I think I’ll take tomorrow off from modelling

Done well mate, looks like it went down smooth from where im sitting.

Good to see you got your feet wet with the airbrush, hopefully when you got more spare time in future we will see you use it more hi5

Would have spent more time tidying and cleaning the airbrush than actual paint time.

All the time is prep for 5 mins of painting, always the way though.
