YOU CAN DO IT...just mix dark grey with your favorite green or blue and you have a basecoat.
Hightlight with same color with ivory added...or many other lighter colors.....have FUN!!

I think you got my attention.

Which kit will they be using?

Fellas, sorry we don't have all the details yet for the Godzilla painting class at Jerseyfest 2015, but we should be announcing in about a week. What I can tell you is that Jon LeGrand and Robert Troch will be the instructors and it's going to be priced really well.

Thanks,
Dave

The class should be fun and informative because as we all know everyone has a different way they like to paint up a Godzilla. Looking forward to all the different ideas! Reading through these posts they all sound good to me. Depending on the film.......... reference screen grabs can boggle your mind at times. KK V G? The studio lights add to some of the crazy colors on the 62 suit. Don't be afraid to try something and if it doesn't work it's easy to fix on a G kit.
