this is my s.n.a.k.e. i had when i was a kid, found in my folk's attic over x-mas. it was pretty dirty, as you would expect.
first thing was to use the metal bristly attachment on the dremel to clean him up. if you're gentle it cleans off all the grime real well, especially around the stickers, just seemed to suck all the gunk out from around the edges, though i did lose a few decals in the process. next i roughed him up a little around the edges w/ the sander attachment and went to work w/ the exacto knife. finally, i dry brushed him w/ enamel rust paint, hit him w/ some acrylic silver i some spots, and paint washed over the cracks w/ acrylic flat black. the enamel seemed to take pretty well, and when i was done i dullcoted him and hit some final details w/ thinned out black acrylic. mostly just an exercise in technique for me, trying to work on my painting and scratching. be gentle. or brutal, either way. pre-work version pic included. |
