RGL got a reaction from DocRob in 1204m Shmel Riverine gunboat by RGL - FINISHED - Tiger Model - 1/35 - PLASTIC
Ok back in the Shmel. The deck, three coats of red/Orange/dark grey then I’ll give it a good clear coat, chipping coat then lots of green coats and chip it back

I’m so glad it didn’t sink! I actually think it’s grown on me, I will have to amend all the figures to NOT have a list. Interesting that the back base resin, the ink is starting to leach upwards )it looks really cool)

So overnight we developed a massive list to port side! It’s stuck solid. So, no change in plan, it will just be a more dramatic rescue scene. I could t figure out why until I looked inside the hull and the seam has leaked letting in resin which as set hard as ballast.
annoying but it will work

So the 4 litre pour, looks ok so far, it will take a week to set

As mentioned before, resin will find its way through the tiniest leak, where water would not even react. I like the heeling of the ship as it gives a more dramatic perspective in this ultra nasty environment.

So next is the radioactive bit. I used AK radioactive water but in the black surface it does not show at all.
So a few drops of a vivid green acrylic in the mix works well.
Remember there will be a coat on top on this and it will all be under water

Deck rusted up with pigments, dryfit of the superstructures; lots of equipment to go on deck yet as it will diffuse the starkness of it

So that’ll do for the lower hull as it will be under water (clear resin)

Greg, I am at loss of words of how good this looks.
Are you to add some radio-active oozing on top of the water?
Have a nice holiday.

So to answer your question, this stuff! I don’t prime the resin which causes it to split but that was perfect for what comes next
