Building the famous RMS Titanic - painting the parts

back to Titanic...

last week my compressor went kaput so all the mood for modelling kaput also.... now since i'll be getting the compressor back in a few days.. thought i share some of the progress *before* the compressor kaput...

The Funnel
The funnel already being painted with my own red + yellow mixture to make it orange...still i think i need to tone down the orange a bit more..

 The Hull paint
Also since i dont have the Hull-Red paint.. need to mix the paint as suggested by the instruction.. 1 black + 2 red.. but it doesnt seem right.. so i add another portion of red.. and the result as follows...

 The black paint is just a straight Flat Black
will need to clear coat this later




the Stand
i dont really fancy displaying the ship on the "peg-leg" provided with the kit.. so i'm going to spice it a little bit...

i really like those wooden block they use in dry-dock.. so i opt to use the same thing by using a real wood for it.. cut to size and use the original stand as the base.
Still i need to varnish the wood to make it more "stained". The base also need to be painted....



That should be it for now....

also the display case also done.. let see if i can complete the rigging etc by April 2nd... this will make an appearance during the SMM 2011

More later...
