I picked up some Mr Color wine red and another red from the local hobby store on my way home.  The red parts were repainted.  The first picture below is a comparison between the wine red and russet that I use the previous night.  The wine red is a much darker red and will work to help create shading effects.  Next I used Finisher&#8217;s bright red and painted the parts using a preshading technique that bases off the darker red base color.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 018_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 018_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 018_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a>  <a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 019_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 019_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 019_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a>  <a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 020_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 020_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 020_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I use gaia note&#8217;s star bright silver as the metallic to see how it stands up against Alclad&#8217;s finish.  I&#8217;m not convinced that this is a better product.  I can see a little graininess from the paint&#8217;s metallic particles.  Maybe my thinning ratio was off, I don&#8217;t know.  I&#8217;ll try them on another project.  Once the metallic were painted, I sprayed on a mixture of clear yellow and clear blue to get a clear green.  Apparently, I ran out of clear green.  The yellow pieces were painted in the same manner using clear yellow.  I like the metallic yellow finish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 022_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 022_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 022_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a>  <a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 023_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 023_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 023_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a>  <a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 024_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 024_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 024_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After the painting sessions were done, it was back to work on the parts that still need surface prep attention.  Tamiya light curing putty is employed.  I have a bunch of lights that I use to help aide the curing process.  And once cured, I did some rough sanding of the areas.  I hope to finish up sanding the parts tonight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 027_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 027_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 027_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a>  <a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 029_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 029_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 029_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a>  <a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 030_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 030_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 030_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Finally, since I have the neck piece painted, I can join the two main pieces of the chest and glue them into place to get rid of the seam.  Bandai&#8217;s 90s era engineering and quality control is clear here, as one piece is smaller than the other piece in terms of alignment.  A good deal of shape sanding will be employed to make the part look correct.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a rel=\"lightbox[1]\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/images\/tekkaman_blade_com 026_jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerabaenre.com\/thumbnails\/tekkaman_blade_com 026_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"tekkaman_blade_com 026_jpg.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The painting resumed last night.
