MonsterMawd Posted December 27, 2009 Author Share Posted December 27, 2009 The transformation from pristine to weathered and dilapidated. He starts by creating the illusion of a scratched-up exterior, imagine Christopher dragged his computer in the gravel. Did he have to wrestle it away from somebody at one time? The Orange & White exterior finish has been scratched done to the bare metal. This is done by hand using enamel "One Shot" Silver paint and a paint brush. Notice the paint is chipped around the bullet holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
