Hi Matt, Lincoln Wright here! Just found your channel, I've been totally missing out on the RU-vid goodness. Great figure, thanks for sharing your work with pastels but man, that tree branch and sakura rock!!!
Paint on Plastic Thanks man. Yeah, I've been chronicling my builds on RU-vid for about 7 years now, especially if they were/ arw commissions. That way my clients can see where their money is going.
So out of curiosity, do you then only base coat your colors and then go in with the pastels, or do you do pre/post shading with your paints and then add the pastels for additional contrast?
Great tutorial ! You said that before you applied the chalk you made sure to clear coat the model , does that mean when your done with the chalk you use the clear coat again to seal it ? Newb here but can you also continue painting after applying a clear coat ?
Matt - thanks for the great video. I have a question for you. I work with resin model horses using pastels. I have found that in a couple I had in storage had whites faded to yellow. They were wrapped in toilet paper and put in a plastic box. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should or shouldn't be doing to prevent this. I used only Testors Dullcote to finish. Thanks for any suggestions you might have. Thanks so much for being there. Appreciate you being there for us.
Can the pastel color only be sealed with a top coat spray or can hand brushing also work? Was thinking of buying some pastels after watching this video but I just remembered I only have a brush on matte top coat (thinned with water)
