Stompa Painting Tip

Recently I painted a Stompa for my LGS. It was already preassembled and primered so I was off to a good start.

The Stompa is a nice shape for painting with lots of broad areas due to it's size. However it's arms and shoulders proved to be the tricky bit. Especially the shoulders with all the crowsnests, hydraulics etc. So my tip is leave the arms and main gun ammo belt off until painted. This makes these areas more accessible especially to any brushwork.

It's definately an airbrush/spraycan job for laying down the basic colours. That's unless you like painting with a house brush.
