bleh,mustrad just seems to result in me losing my patina's

not entirely unhappy,but certainly not what i had intended
Back into the fume chamber it goes

Stunning for me.

Thanks @Andre
The bleach fume wasnt as successful at bringing out black as i had hoped and acetone does not dossolve mustard.
Scraping off the mustard removed almost all the black.

Have an idea using novelty stockings i want to try next.
Also trying out an engine enamel clear coat.lacquer doesnt harden to my liking

 

[Necris]

Trying a different wrap,its a weave cap to be exact.R10 at the local asian shop.

No mustard this time.
Ammonia and salt only

I love this thread @Necris, this is stuff I've wanted to do for a while but just never get around to it. I really enjoy seeing the result of all this experimentation

Give these okes a buzz, I bought some waterslide decal paper from them a few years ago. You print on it and make decals just like the ones you get in scale model kits. Don't know if they still stock it but it's worth a shot.

Forgot to post my interim results here.

Have given it one coat of clear and will sabd between the "scales" and do a second process,probably alcohol ink

 

[Necris]

Sanded in between and popped it back in the fume chamber

Thanks,i like it so far.
hopefully i get what im after.
Added some bicarb to the clear areas,helps bring out dark blues and rinses easily in acetone.
Power just went off,so lets hope i manage to leave it alone long enough

 

[Necris]

looking like the ammonia has eaten through the clear coat,the scales are fading fast...oh well,never said it was an exact science ;p

 

[Necris]

a night in the chamber wrapped in some potato bag netting,sprinkled with bicarb and left.didnt really have a huge affect.

i seem to have to have created a digital camo style.
I like it,still drying.will see what we are dealing with this afternoon

Different light

Dayum that looks nice

 

[Necris]

Clear coat going on,baking should clear up the fogginess nicely,but will darken the blues

Left my can of clear in the sun for a week and everything is coming out cloudy

Got some copper sheeting to play with,will be trying a simple bracelet first...the possibilities end only with my imagination and attention span

 

[Necris]

Experimenting with polyurethane clear coat...bling bling.

Harder to work with,DO NOT SHAKE IT.
but wow...once its on
First badly done coat done by brush.now we wait 24 hrs and wet sand before apply coat no 2

Mds couriers didnt deliver my stingray today so no new patina update..wasted a day of 2 days leave in town...@#$$/ you collivery.will never use you again

Stingray sanded and engravings filled with nail polish.once dry i will sand away excess polish and patina.

Built a new fume chamber

Thanks bud,the pu is a real b!@# to work with but looks to leave a really nice finish.
Second coat is on and drying,looks like a water droplet snuck in somewhere

Quick tip:
When patina'ing multi tube mods.vaseline is a bain.it melts in the sun and runs all over the patina surface.

Had to rush in with earbuds and mop the vaseline up and gooi mustard to attempt to salvage the spots

Considering masking tape or simply spraying a layer of plasti dip as mask(bought a can dirt cheap)
