Would hurt either.
Oh, yeah, man, I mean no sweat. you know.
Hello there. Welcome to small soldier today. We will be doing
The base for the John John Dundas Spitfire that I just recently built. So let's get started with it
So I'm going to show you how to do a decorative base similar to what I did for a
Bf109 build not long ago this starts with a base of your choosing and whatever you want
I've just chosen a simple plaque base and I've already
Gone ahead and painted it with this Tamiya spray can here and it is deck
Tan I think is what it is
So that's had a coat of deck tan and I'm going to be putting this crackle weathered glaze medium over top
And we'll be applying it with a large brush like this a soft brush
I'll just be laying it over the edges like so so let's start that process
So I've just decanted some of the weathered crackle medium
take it like this and
Paint it on
Just like that and the thicker you put it on the bigger
The cracks will be so if you want smaller cracks, you will put thinner coat on
warp factor eight?
Okay, we're back the base is dry and ready to go I'll be using a nice olive color Russian green
894 so it complements the colors in the aircraft. I did a test over here just to make sure it was ready
That looks like it is try not to go over it more than once lay it on nice and thick
It doesn't take long for it to react and it just does its own things so it's cool it it's all random
It's not it's not anything you can control lay it on and what happens happen
So what that completely dry, and we'll be back with the next part
The base is now dry and we're ready for our sludge wash
what I'll be using is some white spirit and
Raw Umber and lamp black and I have already gone ahead and mixed that up. So we'll just start applying this to the base
Let that dry off for a few minutes and then I'll come back and we'll do the next step.
Alright the Glaze is dry. Now. We can start removing
So here I just wanted to show you before we get going on this the elements I'm using for the design
Distinguished Flying Cross and then the information which will go on some plastic card
And of course the photograph with John Dundas and I'll show you how we're going to do that as well
so the first thing that I want to do here is
Find the shape of my base
So there you can see the layout we will go into
Adding these elements to the base now,
and I thought I'd show you here I'm just using some plastic card to glue the name plates on and then just make little Mark's
Where are you going to cut the card?
And those will be your marks we're cutting I'm going to do the same with this as well
So I'll do that off camera and we'll come right back
so there's your
plastic
Bases made for these I would suggest taking the edge down slightly kind of get that raised edge after you've cut the plastic
If you've cut plasti card before, you know what I mean, so you just want to take that down a bit
So when you glue it down, it's actually gonna sit flat do the same on the small base
I figure this you're gonna put this much time into something as far as the model goes
Why not make the base look just as good
One thing we have to do before but these elements together is do sort of a photo touch-up blending this hard line
so I will be using
XF-2 flat white
mixed with Tamiya lacquer thinner when you're spraying you want your paint to be the consistency of like
Skim milk, that's how you test your paint
If you're new to airbrushing, you know, you're good if your paint is flowing like that
If so, you go in with the white and you're going to retouch if you want to get rid of this
hard line
So you can see there now that dark line is pretty much gone NATO black is what we're gonna use to
Come in and touch this up
We can't do it if we keep the speed we'll blow up any minute now
So
Off-camera, I went ahead and double side tape the back of our elements. I prefer this to glue because
It's quicker for one thing. So
There we have our text
So if we just pull it tight like that
There we go. I'm gonna come back after I get this backing tape off and we'll go from here
think we got it so now that we have that
You have to determine where I want to put this I'm thinking
Somewhere about there with that there
the aircraft there
Looks pretty good. I'm gonna go with that
All right. So I've mixed up a slurry of white glue and water. I'm going to be saturating this thing
So I've marked out my lines here and I want to get this as close as I can to
Where I put those lines
And it'll just mold to the edge
So I finished this off screen and was I was struggling with it, there's no point you guys sitting there watch me
Beat my head against the wall trying to get this on. I'm still gonna put a matte coat over this, but you can see
how smart that looks and that's really hasn't taken any time at all and we just have to place
These guys where we want them I
Think that's where they'll go and we'll be back with the next part
Next step is take a black marker and go around the edge just to finish it off. Nice
And that's just a matter of going around it. with marker
Next step. I've got some indigo here
Just some indigo
Oil paint what I'm gonna do is wet this first with my thinner
I'm just going to take that indigo. I'm just gonna dab it around
Then with dry towel
Twisting it as you go
It'll kind of get an interesting pattern in there. So there you go
I'm gonna go ahead and do this off camera and then we'll be back to show you the final step
All right, the final steps. Here we go. All right. I've got my I
Have my mark here
There we go, that's how you make a custom base for a project thanks for watching small soldier. Hope you enjoyed this tutorial
