Here's a [reasonably cheap one](http://amzn.to/2BjyIPu) and one that has a . A variety of bits is really worth it. In fact, I really did actually order the second one from amazon while writing this. Seriously.
|
|
## Painting
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Prime the pieces with dark brown primer. I love the Krylon Fusion paints, they are super flat and bind to plastic really well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Hit the stone areas with medium coverage of Burnt Sienna. You want to make sure the deep areas still show through with the dark brown.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Now do a lighter coverage of Raw Sienna. Not quite a drybrush, but make sure the paintbrush is not particularly full of paint.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Now drybrush with Honey brown. This is intended to be a highlight, so you want to focus on it ending up on the upturned edges of the piece. I do this by only moving the brush down against the part.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Optional) Now use fawn to pick out about 5 blocks per piece. Drybrush the fawn on and onto the same brick on the reverse side. Pick different bricks for each of the 4 parts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Optional) Now use a sepia wash and pick out 5 more bricks. Cover the whole brick with the wash on front and back. This is called glazing. We are using the wash to tint the entire brick.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Optional) Finally glaze 5 more random bricks with a brown wash. Brown and sepia are similar, but the hue is still different, and the bricks will give some variation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* (Optional) Highlight the stone embelishments (the arches, pillars and base of the niche) with a mix of Desert Sand and Honey Brown
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use a black wash inside the grate at the bottom
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use a very dark metallic on the grate itself. I used Adamantium Black.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Highlight the grate with a lighter metallic. I chose to also go for a more dull color in Aged Pewter to show the age.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Paint the tracery on the top, the rods and the small symbol above the niche with a bronze paint. Here I use Old Bronze.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Mix a green and a blue to create a turquoise. Then add a wash medium and some water. I use equal parts Liquitex Matte Medium and water to make the wash. If you don't have that, you can use water and a little rubbing alcohol to make the wash. The alcohol will make it so the wash also sticks to surfaces instead of just going for the crevices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* I took my green which was already close to a turquoise and dry brushed the raised surfaces to get more verdegris on the metal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Paint the door and door arch (glue 2 back to back) with the krylon flat dark brown
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Hit the wood on the door with Burnt Umber
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Do a lighter layer with Milk Chocolate. I'm keeping the browns a different hue from the stone to make it clear that this is wood.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Dry brush with Honey Brown
|
|
|
|
|
|
* I used the Aged Pewter on all the metal parts and on the two sides.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Then lined around the metal parts with a black wash.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Paint the arch and the top of the door like the rest of the stonework.
|
|
|
|
## Construction
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Glue some short lengths of filament into two of the walls. A pin vice can be useful in this step if the holes are not well cleared.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Glue two sides together, making sure that the filament sides are oriented so you can glue the two halves together. The filament acts as a strengthener to keep the bond between sides strong.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Glue the two halves together and clamp.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* If using the floors, glue them into two halves and wait to dry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Then glue the two sides together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Flip over and glue the pillars in the corners. The pillars are painted the same way as the rest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Glue the painted roof and arches to the building, but *not* the pillars. There's an outline on the building of where these two pieces should be glued. I found it works out better if you glue the arches first and then the roof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Slide the decorative arch in, then the door. Don't glue, this is made to be able to hold windows (like 3 sides of the real mausoleum) or a wall. Both of which I plan on releasing later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Final Product
