Hi,

the other day I found a really great color scheme on the web. I loved it so much that I'm going to do the same or something like it. now my question is. does anybody have more of these photo's or pics similar to this color scheme?

cheers,

that's actually a really simple scheme:

black undercoat, some brown layers up to bleached bone, and then green is Dark angels green with 2-3 layers above that of successively lighter grees, possibly streaked/blended with more bleached bone

Yeah....I'd bet the whole model has a couple of coats of Varnish. They probably coated it with Gloss Varnish for a tough finish that will protect the paint...then it probably got a dull coat spray finish. However, it look like they may have applied a satin coat to the carapace by itself.

well I'm not sure if you can get the exact brand I use where you live but, I use Deco Art Satin Finish (brush on). Now, something you may consider is getting GW's Purity Seal spray. I'm pretty sure that is a satin varnish spray that is only sold in europe (?). Check at an art supply store for brush on varnishes....that is the first place I'd check...after that....internet maybe...
