An acrylic palette pitched at science-fiction subjects: armor, technical surfaces and cool industrial tones.
Responsibility details are not available.
Science-fiction figures have a different problem from historical ones. It is not about fidelity to a subject but about large smooth armor plates not looking like a plastic casting. Cool tones with clear accents suit that, which is exactly what this palette offers. It is usable on spacesuits, mechanical structures and robots alike.
The quickest route to modeled armor goes through a ground sprayed in two steps. First go over the whole model with a dark tone, then tilt the nozzle from above and pass lightly over the surfaces turned toward an imaginary sky. Shadow and light arise before you touch a brush, and everything further only builds on that ground.
Apply the shade itself thinned, so that the lighting shows through beneath it. Two or three transparent coats keep the difference between shadow and light; one opaque coat smooths it away. If you spray the paint, lead it square on and in short bursts; in a longer pass the material builds up in one place and the difference disappears.
The rest belongs to the brush. The engraved joints between plates only need a pass of a thinned dark tone that runs into them by itself, and the sharp edges need drawing out with a light line. Apply the signal areas and lights last, onto a well-dried surface, so that the clean shade does not mix with the ground. Around them it pays to lighten the neighboring area slightly too, so that the light looks as though it really falls somewhere.
