Extra step. You can stipple a mix of brown and black around the edge of the muzzle to give it that carbon build up look.

As time goes on, I start to learn that the reason people have cleaner lines and such then me...is because they use tape and putty. Mind blown.
ReplyDeleteLooking good, though I'd like to see a lot more carbon buildup on the end of that flamer!
Yeah, tape can help with clean lines. I prefer not to use it. Impresses me to no end when painters do it with no tape.
DeleteThanks. Wasn't sure whether to post a pic of carbon build up or not. Decided against it. It is on the final product though.
