Cockpit/Visor/Canopy Glass Reflection

Post by Darkson »

So I am working on a walker right now and I am trying to figure out the best way to paint a reflection on the Canopy. Any help would be great.

Cheers,
Robert

I've seen a painted cockpit somewhere. I think it was blue with white lines painted on it like reflections of light. I don't know if it wasn't Nameless's eldar tank. Ask him, maybe he remembers it better?

If you want other recipes, go to reapermini.com/forum and try to search for "cockpit". I'm sure that CAV players posted such recipes there :)

yeah because Phil is such a great fan of freehands :P

I remember a eldar verhicle on CMON that had the canopy painted in a SENMM kind of way. I'll see if I can find it.

We painted the canopies of our Eldar vehicles too, mostly in reds. I'll see if I can sneak them home with me to take some piccies for you...
