WIP: BANDAI 1:12 scale C3PO part 2 - weathering


"Oh, thank the maker! This oil bath is going to feel so good!"

3PO is next in line for weathering! Another simple case of coating the model in satin varnish then applying a thinned oil wash.


I've had to paint the eyes, as the wash settled behind them, and made it look like he was turned off. He's ready to stand next to his counterpart once their bases are complete.

  1. I've seen a few people working on this model. Is it VUM out of the box or did you have to paint it?

  2. VUM coated. Really smartly designed too, all the parts are made so that they don't get marred when you clip them from the sprue
