I want to set up a computer in the garage so I can let it go overnight. The biggest obstacle to that is Dad who does not seem to understand certain things that need to be kept away from computers. Sigh.

😀 😀 😛
 
It would be not be good if he inadvertently disrupted in while it was on. 🙁
😀 😛
 
Do you guys ever get an idea stuck in your head,and it just won't go away? 😀 😛
 
Sure, sometimes I can't stop thinking about one thing. I think that happens to everybody. 😀 😛
 
I got this idea to add some winter white paint for camo on a model tank Not sure if I will follow through with it yet or not That type of camo is hard to do 😀 😛

Yea white can be a hard color to pull off. I might go with a slightly off white color. 🙂

Is that historically accurate? Did some armies paint their tanks white to conceal them in the winter? 😀 😛

I always hated painting white Pain in the butt


I may try some brush on type of pigment I use pigments in making the vehicles dirty or dusty Some guy on the scale model forms I belong to sells his own brand of pigments

He does sell a titanium white,as well as some light gray pigments I could try that to see what happens 😀 😛

You might try texturing the paint as well. Like pressing a cloth or something while it still a bit wet to give a more 3d look. It can help break up the plainess of pure white. 😛

You are most welcome. Try it out on a sample piece before doing it to the real thing if you go that way.

Cool. Always good to test things out first if you are trying something new. Some acrylics allow you add other things to give texture or opalescense to final job. Dick Blick or Nasco usually have a whole list of goodies like that. 🙂

😀 😀 😛
 
One reason I may go the pigment route is,if you make a mistake,the stuff can be washed off real easy 😀 😛
 
It sounds like a very painstaking job to get the paint exactly right. 😀 😛
