Painting: 1/100 Kshatriya Resin Kits - Head and Torso

After having this 1/100 NZ-666 Kshatriya full resin kit for about a year now, I've finally decided to paint it, starting with the head and torso. I have previously cleaned and dry-fit built the kit, so all the kit needs is some final checks and painting can begin.

Tutorial: Painting battle damages

Continuing on after applying the weathering, I now go on to paint the battle damage I applied earlier.

In painting the battle damage, I started by dry brushing black in the bullet holes and explosions. I also dry brushed a bit outside the bullet holes and explosions but kept it close to the edges.



Tutorial: Drybrush weathering

After applying the battle damages, I proceed to do the weathering and painting of the battle damages.

I start with applying the weathering first using the drybrushing technique.
First off is the drybrush. I use what's called a stencil brush (that's what's written on the label) because it comes with stiff bristles; which is important in drybrushing. But any old brush with stiff bristles will do.


Tutorial: Applying battle damages.

This is a simple tutorial of the battle damage I did on a project I did about two years ago.
This was done on a Perfect Grade Zeta and was the first time I did battle damage.
