Rhino (Another misleading thread title)

[Keith Diamond]

Not a Phantom or Super Hornet, but... a Rhino.

Painted this alongside the Brontosaurus display








Its hard to see, but I actually used two shades of gray - Gunship and Euro 1.  I wanted two similarly shaded grays that were distinguishable up close.

Very, Very, very nice. That is a skillfully done paint job, well done that man I am envious.
Mind you for this forum it should have been in three (at least) shades of PINK

That is very well painted......I like it......needs a saddle n something like a warhammer 40k warrior on it...... ......I'm viewing this on an iPhone screen....so excuse my ignorance.....but have the horns been painted..?.....H

Thanks guys, I guess I should have whiffed it more.  A good idea may have been to get an armor kit, and graft random bits on it to look like an up armored fighting machine!

but have the horns been painted..?.....H

Most of the rhino pics I saw online didn't have much contrast between the horns and the skin tone.  So the underside and horns were painted Gunship gray, while most of the body was painted Euro 1.  So the horns are a different color than the rest of the body, but it blends in pretty well.

nice    why do my "practice" sessions always look so nightmarish?!

Guess I'm used to seeing to many beasts in my local GW with bleached bone horns/tusk/teeth with various washes on them......great paint
