Battle Damage Time

Apologies everyone I'm a little behind on updating! I had a sudden work trip out of town for a week and wasn't able to update on my progress from the week before.

But here I have begun the scariest part of the entire project - taking these beautiful kits and butchering them! I've tried my best to keep in mind how the damage would match the battle. The lack of bullet holes and such is on purpose as this is supposed to be a melee between these two! I've focused on adding scrapes from claws and broken armor, along with scrapes from the ground and other environmental things!

After adding all of the major damage, like breaking the armor and large cuts, I went ahead and threw on my base colors via airbrush. Next step is adding all of the minor damage and small scrapes. Once satisfied with that I will add washes across the sub-assemblies adding more damage where I see fit.

My workhorse for this step is a ultrasonic knife and I couldn't recommend one of these more for doing battle damage! Just by how it works it allows for melted edges where you cut away, which is really nice!
