Joints & power pipes: Citadel Foundation> 25% brown+25% dark gray+50% black. It's the same mix for the chipping. Exhaust: several Model color tones, based on this picture from Google. Aluminum color is a mix of "Boltgun" metal (Citadel)+white (citadel) Weathering: W&N oil> Black, Raw Umber, Burnt Sienna. Mig Pigments> Europe dust (everywhere), golf War+Concrete (top) and Russian Earth (bottom/feet). Snow: Future and Baking soda. Mud: Acrylic resin (from Mig)+dirt (from my yard)+ acrylic dark brown (Citadel) Bigger pictures: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11More information. Arno |

Excellent stuff. Fantastic job on the "flexible" joint covers. Great job on the colors and weathering looks great. The chipping looks good, but I really like the gime on the upper engine deck. I appreciate the very big pictures.
I love the AFS MK2 and I need to be building me one of them 1/2 camo suits.

Very good weathering on this one! Thanks for all of the information. I'll have to try the future and baking soda, it looks great. Also appreciate the x-large pictures on your website. Another great resource!  Mike |

Superb!! The slight turn of the head gives the figure character and purpose. Wonderfully painted!

Beautiful work Arno, really, really good. The multi-hued Green with the thin looking and scraped white, dirtiness gradient and simple yet perfect basing, all top marks. If I can re-do a winter AFS, I would like to then borrow some ideas and try them too! Must say I am very flattered and thank for you for both the homage and mention, both sincerely appreciated. I did have a strange feeling of "Hey, I know this guy!"  when I first saw him finished and I think your eye is excellent, you've taken the best from 2 suits right? Pose is a little improved on "Peter Wentworth" as well as the scheme from "Snowman". Thanks again my friend, my work to replace myself is now complete.  Lin.K |

Really beautiful work Arno, I agree with SMH this is what a Ma.k suit should look like: great colour scheme and depth, awesome weathering and a convincing and definitely not detracting base (I like the mud on the feet)!
Great blog, by the way and thanks for sharing all the painting tips.

I forgot:
the face (even if we can't see a lot): Vallejo Model color.
Black exhaust: Mig Pigments Black smoke (this one is awesome to use!)
About the snow: Future acylic floor & baking soda ("bicarbonate de soude" pour les français), I thought snow was very difficult to do. I was surprised really It's very easy!

T'assures grave ! C'est juste parfait, on dirait une illustration ou une photo prise sur le vif. Amazing ! It looks like a drawing or a war shot picture, i want to see more ! |
