LANDING GEAR:
used 2 ordinary sized wires (fastened together)
pedals:electric guitar part(where strings are connected usually chrome in color, sorry I don't know what's it called)
COLORING:
-used spray paint(flat black)for primer
-then dry brushed it with a mixture of black, red and burnt sienna
-after drying put a little orange which serves as high light (but not to heavy)...just a touch.
-then dry brushed it a little more with an acrylic black to create rustic effect.
-finally, covered the whole vehicle with washed silver acrylic paint( small amount of silver in brush diluted in water... you will see the effect when it dries ...apply as desired).
thank I hope this helps... tell me what you think...
