Hi Friends

My first work posted here. I hope you like

=> Base P-40B (Beach)
The base was made about of wood board of 180x180mm
White glue was applied (type Tenaz) in the base leaving surface waterproof.
After of glue dry, was made the apply of the mache paper. (dust instant). The mache paper
must be mixed with white glue, till have a uniform and homogeneous appearance. Remove excess of water.
The mixed must be apply in form the imitate an irregular ground.
After one day of drying, was applied a very thin layer of earth. Found in Forest Garden earth, this earth was
sieved with fine sock of woman.
=> Painting
After one day of drying of the earth in base, was applied background primer.
Drying of 30 to 60 minutes.
After Dry. I applied automotive paint sand color, uniformly covering all base, after dry (2 to 3 hours)
I applied Tamiya acrylic paint Desert Yellow (XF-59) uniformly covering good part paint previous.
After drying I applied Tamiya acrylic paint flat earth (XF-52) without giving effect uniformity of deep
in the surface. (One day of drying)
=> Aging

Tecniques of Dry Brush, Dry Chalk Pastel and Wash.

Using the tecnique of dry brush I applied Mural acrylic paint suede for give highlight relief of ground.
Using the tecnique of the dry chalk pastel I applied tones of brown leaving the base with realism effect,
the idea is leave the ground with differents tones without uniformly.
I applied matte varnish for fixation of dry chalk pastel.
Using the tecnique of the wash was made aging of ground, I use oil paint in the colors yellow ocre and raw umber (Winsor&Newton).
After all dry, I applied matte varnish to fix the work.
=> Aircraft

The P-40B is a Revell kit. This is the first kit I rode many years ago,
after a few years a lot of dust rolled using it at a scene where the plane would have been dropped,
and the pilot escaped unhurt with only some scratches.
The holes in the fuselage were made with drills of 0.1 mm and all aging techniques using Dry Brush, Wash, Chalk pastel.
=> Coconut-tree

The coconut-tree was made with nature stuff and paper
The tree trunk is the branch of natural
The foliage is leaf of typing paper and wire, painted in various tones of green and brown.

Nice dio you have there Luiz and welcome to armorama. Hope to see more of your work.

I like when builders take the time to make a dio for their kits. You've done a great job, looks really good!

Thanks friends,

Soon I send more works.

I am working in a new dio, I will make snics of the vietnã.
It will have a boat PRB31 and armored M113.
