Star Wars - Yavin Rebel Base Flatpack Diorama/Playset

Thanks Russ,

 The paint job was really easy - I've found that Acrylic paints are great for weathering, the fact that they are water based makes them far easier to work with.

 I used a colour called Anthracite (a greyish black), and a faily stiff, medium width modelling  brush. I slightly watered down the paint and liberally applied it over an area of the craft.

As soon as I had appliued the paint I got a piece of paper kitchen towel and wiped away as much of the paint as I could. This left paint in the inaccesable areas, around detailing and in the panel lines. If I wanted to exaggerate an area I just used the paint neat.

Just be careful not to paint too large an area as the paint dried quickly.

Neat idea!  I have two young girls that love Star Wars.  Thanks for posting the decals - will check them out. 

I like the paint job on the spaceships.  Nice weathering.
