PG Mk-II repainting in Titanz colour
Posted by dj898 on Monday, May 1, 2006 8:49 PM
some of you may remember my PG AEUG Mk-II with heavy shadow...
well I finally repainted it in Titanz colour and tried the washing using the light grey for the panel line. Well with dark blue colour you cannot use the black line and easiest way to achieve the panel lining is by using the washing with light grey. Before washing I basically pull apart everything and spray inside and out while some parts I stripped the painting or what little they have. and I salvage some parts off mate's junk PG Mk-II Titanz kit to make up couple of parts I broke or gotten too weak after stripping

well enough word, here are the pictures of three modules ready for assembly...
Except that I broke one of pin at the waste so till it's cured I could not put it back together... :(

Torso
Legs
Backpack

Shield and beam rifle are the next.
As I using the old kit I didn't bother to fix the seam line issue with rifle though next time I build PG Mk-II I definately going to do proper job plus full inner metal fram painting...

I will upload more pictures when I had time to setup the rig to take proper photo.
The above one is quick test shot under single Halogen at the kitchen table at mid night right after I've done rifle and shield...

for the colour mixture can't remember exactly coz it was some left over from previous job.  The initial photo were taken with the flash and it kind of brought out those panel line. As you can see in this photo they are not so noticeable...

it certainly is cheaper to repaint than buying Titanz colour PG Mk-II kit
I saw it close to A$200 from HobbyCo. That is a lot of money and missus would never allow it.
besides it's easier to repaint in darker colour than re-do in white AEUG with the amount of shading it had before cool.gif
