Member Since: February 22, 2011 RK: 1 MP: 0 | Friday June 28, 2013 9:29 PM Already magnetized.Tau Riptide on it's way. Did a first pass Pattern tinit with red as seen here. The four pieces at the top have done with a second pass of orange tint and went back with red to shade in some red giving it a orange reddish hue.  A close look at the four pieces. I will probably rename my Riptides to Bengal Riptides or Sunset Riptides. Haha!  "Peach... I can eat a peach for hours..." |

 Member Since: May 10, 2013 RK: 1 MP: 0 | Friday June 28, 2013 11:17 PM Love how the orange tint has came out. Bengal Riptide for the win!We can seldom get our children to do what we tell them, but they almost never fail to imitate us. |

Member Since: February 22, 2011 RK: 1 MP: 0 | Saturday June 29, 2013 12:14 AM All piece applied with second orange pass. A drawback about the tints is that it bleeds through so you have to wait for it to cure to minimize the bleed or coat it over with a lacquer or enamel clear coat which seemed to work preventing the tint from bleed up to the next layer. But without a clear coat between passes of different colors, I let the red to bleed up into the orange mixing together into a burgundy type of color. This ended up giving the whole overall model a fiery look. It came out pretty trippy. "Peach... I can eat a peach for hours..." |
