Title: Ruckdog's DFC
Post by: Ruckdog on January 05, 2017, 09:31:16 pm

I've been working on my first DFC ship. Here is a test scheme for my UCM:

I still have some detail work and highlighting to do, but I think I like the color combo enough to proceed with this scheme on the rest of the fleet!

I like it! What are the colors you're using?

That looks great. It really works for the style of the ship and the faction.

Here is the lineup:

I used Intermediate Blue (left) as the base, followed by a black wash. I then overbrushed with Intermediate Blue, and then drybrushed Blue-Grey (middle) and finally Pale Greyblue (right) over that.

I was able to get the major assembly done on the rest of my UCM. Now I need to get busy with painting them!

Ruck, where do you find any time to paint with twins, and life, for that matter?

Looking good Ruck.

Just reinforcing my desire to get some of these ships on my hobby shelf. Still not sure I'll ever play the game, but I do like the ships!
