hi sir, most of the weathering skill that i have now i learn it from you and don carlos during the zerogunz era.my first weathering kit is my zz gundam in your makoto kobayashi gb back in 2011.thank you sir

Huhu, this looks fun and beautiful!!!!! Under sun light photo this looks so real.

U may have a story for it, but from first impression, think the rim n tyres looks way too clean, and hence much easier to reminds your viewers that this is plastic kit.

Besides, some of the rust streaks look a little oversized.

Yeah, i m being a little too picky but i think ur level of skill deserves very picky comments n criticism

Gollum thinks the wheels is the dead giveaway this is plastic model car. Gollum thinks the wheels is too glossy and too clean to match with the body. But still good job on the weathering

Hi Rayloke,


Thank you very much for your comments. Actually criticism like this is very important for us to improve our skill.


Initially this kit supposed to be minor weathering, focusing on the scratch due to years of racing and old age. So,I cut the rust effect using pen knife only for the front portion of the car, leaving the rear portion clean. However, during the painting works, i started to do weathering for the whole car. Some area especially the rear part, the rust streak is looks oversize because i need to cut the plastic deeper due to layers of paint, thus making the rust streak looks oversize. Unlike the front portion, i cut the rust effect directly to the plastic / body.
 

thank you sir

Nice Nice Nice !!!! nothing beat a rusty machine on yellow paint. As the other pointed out wheel is a giveaway and the rust streak is over scale

Really like the paint peel effect on the roof ......The background weathered rail gives it extra realistic feel of rust (I hope that rail is real rust/paint chip that is not done by you)

Just out of curiousity you stay in Johor?? saw the flag ...but I m terrible at flags hope I m not mistaken..
