Black Gold Washes - Oil Washes That Is

Excellent article Mal, I've never gotten the hang of doing a wash properly, now I will feel more confident about tackling them. These step by step articles are great.

A brilliant series... Truly excellent guides for us all. Thanks and Cheers Peter :-)

Awesome stuff Mal! A great explanation of the technique accompanied by detailed pictures of every stage... what more could I ask?!... well, maybe you could come over and build my next kit for me! All the best Rowan

Having been thinking about this subject for the last day or two, nice to see the thing in a concrete form. Thanks Holdfast and thanks for posting it up....Jim

Nice article! Worth reading and very useful! Thanks!

:-) Thanks guys. The final part of this will be final weathering and finishing. It should have been done by now, but as you may have noticed these articles are utilizing My Tamiya Spitfire Mk I. I have had a bit of a disaster with it And have spent some time trying to rectify the problems. That's also why the on line build of this model has ground to a halt, if you've been following that. I can now report that things, appear, to be getting back on track. These problems and, I hope, there solutions, will be included in the next article and the online build. I do have a couple more articles on the go, Re-scribing panel lines, Using kitchen foil and of course the one on final weathering and finishing. Is there anything that anyone would like me to tackle? I am trying to see if I can get my head around one on air brushing, but I can't find a way of taking pics and spraying (my spray both aint big enough for 2). Is there a need for articles on the very basics, such as removing and cleaning up parts, Applying liquid cement and that sort of thing? Mal

Hi Mal, there are a lot of beginners so the more simple tasks, would definitely be of great benefit. And its just as nice for the more experienced to have a refresher course or two every now and again also. And doing them the way you've done the features so far would be excellent. Cheers Peter :-)

Simply very nice article helpful and nice written and presented . Thanks for sharing !!!
