Hi Lee,

You're welcome.

Sometimes pearlescent paint gives off that look of different colours depending on the light and angle of viewing. I have tried to use OEM paint to get the same effect but on a relatively small model the effect doesn't seem to be the same. Maybe some of the guys here who are good with paint and finishing can give some advice better than an amateur like me but I'm told it's something to do with the particle size within the paint

It would be shame if you're going for a look that you have to sacrifice that look for the sake of a little research

If anyone does have any ideas on how to get that pearlescent look in a small scale model then I'd love to read it

Many thanks in advance anyone and everyone and best of luck to you Lee


Mike
