Hello guys. I have this project that i'll tackle and then (or while i'm building it, i really don't know) painting it to give it a most realistic look. This will be my first build of this nature, until now i just builded, painted edges, normal stuff.
I know this will be a nice, long and laborious project, so i'm asking if you can pinpoint at me where to study about painting paper (this kind of full paint), if it will requires putty and sand, how to do it, etc. I've searched but mostly all i found are plastic related projects. The closest thing i can think of (on paper) are the tanks, trucks kind of projects, but those have heavy laminated (0,5mm, 1mm, o more) but the carbine comes without any structural/internal support cardboard. Hoborginc juggests 190gr paper. I can get 200gr paper, so it's close and will have to work.
I'll appreciate any advice.
