How I painted my nerf hammershotStep 1: Watch some youtube vids of other people taking apart the same model.Step 2: Take it apart with a screwdriver, and take photos to reference when putting it back together.Step 3.5: half-assedly attempt to sand off all the nerf logos but give up because time is running outStep 3: Tape any parts that need to stay paint free with masking tape.Step 4: Spray outer shell with primer. I used Septone acrylic primer. It’s thin enough to paint the barrel without affecting the mechanisms. Make sure it’s the surfacer and NOT the filler type. It’s scratch proof and provides a nice matte grey to build off.Step 5: Paint and weather with model paints-I used a bunch of Tamiya and Humbrol acrylics because they don’t require a sealer to stop them chipping off like artists acrylic. Weathering is just a matter of brushing light coats of paint on then rubbing most of it off before it dries.Step 6: Wrap up the handle. All done! The chain is there because I didn’t have time to make a holster before the game. -- source link
