Colonel's Cardstocking Compendium !!! (Part 16)
(N): Dressing Surfaces With Different Textures
(a) 26/08/2012
As we should all know, Computer-Assisted Modelling allows us to apply textures/maps to surfaces (and I will be discussing this, later), but, as an old-school modeller, at heart, I like to dress, manually, on occasion :)
In the creation and convertion of the UD12 Chickenhawk (Ariadna Nival Camo) from the excellent Toposolitario, I decided I wanted this version, to be a weapon-equipped transport, and to have a tail fin, as the original looks a little flat, there ...
Here is a mock-up (with a tad, too big a tail !!!) ...
I have been searching, high and low, for suitable models and, as is sometimes the case, a wonderful gift arrives, like this 'smallish version, of a science fiction, flying vehicle' ...
Blood Ravens Stormtalon paper model
Papercraft Stormtalon
40k flyers Raven Stormtalon Hellblade
Not only does it have linked cannons, to die for, the tail fin (with a little modding) is perfect, in size and style.
My version will also have missile pods, too, but I will come to those, later (Hernaldo's version, or from a Patoroch kit).
The Dressing
This technique works for any printed texture, of course, but, I will be dressing it with that of the original (which is light and subtle, as I printed it that way) ...
The coloured part of Hernaldo's kit, is on the right, and the part I need (printed grayscale, to save colour ink), cropped, is on the left ...
I will dress each panel, leaving the line detail as 'embossing' ...

Colonel's Cardstocking Compendium !!! (Part 15)
(M): Some Vehicle WIP Reference Images
(a) 16/08/2012
First up ... the UD12 Chickenhawk (Ariadna Nival Camo) from the excellent Toposolitario ...
... lighter print density. I am intending to add a 'tail fin' to it (at least) ...
Second, a Slightly-Larger Than The Real Thing Vindictive Blue Tank from the incredible Patoroch ...
... this is the earlier version (III). The later tanks 'fit' (or did I not turn off scaling???!!!).

Colonel's Cardstocking Compendium !!! (Part 14)
(L): Kitbashing Caelum Calauticum for Warhammer 40k
(d) WIP
(c) WIP
Colours now fixed. Any difference, is due to the window being on the right ...
I need to get an iron, on a few raised areas (although, it is nowhere near so obvious, at other angles).
Mock Aquilas, for effect ...
(b) WIP Teaser
This is a display/photography 'supertile'.
It is obvious, that I used the original print cartridge, on the 'RHS' of the board (red tint), in comparison to the refill, on the 'LHS' (blue tint). Ironically, I prefer the LHS, for this project (so, I could stick newer printouts, on the 'RHS').
Once street furniture is added, and edging and weathering have been carried out, the eye/brain will be deceived :)
