Hopefully the last of the "Imperial" series kits that I will build. This entry is to document the my application of the "color modulation" technique in its initial stages.
Completed model ready to be primed, note that the spare tracks are not fixed at this stage. I was still meddling with them and trying to find a logical way to have these spare tracks sit naturally in their position.
Model primed with Gunze Sanyo's Mr Surfacer 1200.
Gunze's hull red applied to the model.
Base coat comprising of a mixture of Gunze dark yellow and hull red applied. While it is not evident in this picture, the hull red was allowed to show through in the deep shadow areas.
3 layers of progressive highlights applied giving the impression of the light source coming from the upper front of the model.
