Realistic Airbrushing 🎨: Step-by-Step Guide to Painting the USS Enterprise Saucer.(2)

Welcome, stellar modelers! In this video, I show you the complete and detailed process for painting the saucer section of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 (or any Star Trek model) using airbrushing techniques to achieve a realistic finish and the famous Aztek Panel Effect.

Painting Star Trek model kits requires patience and precision. I'll explain step-by-step how to prepare the surface, which paints and masks to use, and the best airbrush techniques so that the subtle color variations and panels look as realistic as possible. If you're looking for an airbrush tutorial for sci-fi model making, you've come to the right place!

In this tutorial you will learn:
