DalaGStanator's Customs, Mods and Experiments

To my disappointment, the green spray paint ran out just as I started to paint Daisy with what was left of it. This meant I had to paint the entire model by hand like I usually do. However...



...the acrylic green turned out very similar (albeit slightly too dark), and the only thing I had to do was mix it with yellow to add a layer of lime green after it dried. The spray paint also highlighted the residue of the top layers on the sides and top, so the acrylic did a much better job masking it. After that, I proceeded to paint all the other details.




The front and rear windows are acrylic, whereas all the side ones were done with a twin tip marker. I'm not too surprised I got the exact number despite having little space, given the 3D printed versions got it right too. I thought about using acrylic paint on a soft wipe or cotton bud for the makeup, but feared it might ruin the face. To get the blush, I went with a non permanent pink marker and smudged it off. Actually rather effective until it has to be reapplied (it will, someday). Only the eyes look a little too flat and not recessed enough.



Naturally, the trickiest part was the yellow lining. It would've been easier if I did it before adding the windows, and the roof looks very wavy on the left (viewer's right). She turned out to be one of the best ones I've ever done.
