my two G'Quan (pics)

[Abraxas]

i've got two Ka'Tocs undercoated and ready to be painted this week, i'll keep an eye on the time it takes me for them.

I can't wait to see them as well.

Hell, I can't wait till you finish the whole fleet .

You can cheat with the bluing of the engines (or at least I did). Paint them white to start with then heavily water down some pale blue paint. Holding the model vertical so gravity helps, just apply the paint mix into the engine cowlings. Gravity will cause most of the paint to pool toward the base of the engines, leaving a gradiated residue on the side.

just mix a small amount of ice blue with white, that's how I did mine, they look just like the G'quan's engines

Brilliant!

:lol: Pretty much exactly what I did, but in reverse...I painted them a light blue and then added a bit of water-ed down white to the whole interior of the bell...the white settles in the middle when you hold it vertically...
