So for this update on my MG Sandrock, I’ll be covering the parts that I’ll be painting the red clay color.
But first, I needed to handle a little masking on the shield.
When I painted the light sand on the shield, I had covered the central area with a little blutac to keep the primer color preserved.
As you can see in the second picture, the blutac did its job very well!
And as I mentioned previously, blutac is also reusable, so I was able to use it (plus a little extra) to cover about half of the shield. The rest I covered with blue painters tape.
The red clay color was pretty hard to nail down just right, and is is a hodge-podge mix of Testors brand Flat White, Primer, Rust, Schokoladenbraun, ATSF Red, Signalbraun, and Humbrol brand Matt 121.
Got a “File Size Error” when I tried to post my final picture (of all parts painted red) so I’ll have to leave it at a side by side comparison between the primer and the new color.
Next update I’ll cover the parts I’ll be painting in my custom pale gold/bronze color.
