DYT!! You have realized amlost every single one of my dreams! Next thing I know youll be leading the communist revolution and sleeping with my girlfreind!!
Ok, I painted those grills black and am in ther process of weathering the gun. I also found something out: When I thin down the paint from my brush, the thinner gets all black and disgusting. Now if I slather this on the kit, let it dry just a little, and then wipe it away, some of the black gets stuck in the cracks and corners of the kit. Is this what they call a "blackwash"? If so, Can I use this for armor weathering?
And if you have an hour or so to kill, I would recommend you take a look at these. They are two classic soviet silent movies,
October and
The Battleship Potemkin. They are very good, both directed by the Soviet film genius Sergei Eisenstein. They have been given musical scores, and some limited sound effects. Oktober has subtitles for the story slides, while all the slides of Potemkin have been replaced with english. But the story is clear anyway.
Oktober relates the stroy of the 1917 revolution, from the czar's overthrow, to the provisional govermnet, to the siege of Petrograd, toithe Petrograd Soviet and the degfeat of the provisional government.
The Battleship Potemkin is about The mutiny of the crew of the Potemkin during the 1905 revolution.
