Titans Blue 2 (Semi-Gloss)

Titans Blue 2 (Semi-Gloss) - a color from the Gundam series

A modeling paint from the Japanese brand Gunze from the series of colors for kits from the Gundam universe. It is the second paint of the dark two-color finish of the Titans formation, which you combine on a model with color number one. The designation Semi-Gloss in the name gives a semi-gloss surface.

Which scheme the color belongs to

The equipment of the Titans formation differs from ordinary machines by a dark finish made up of two blue tones; the best known in these colors is the Gundam Mk-II. Number two will not make the whole scheme on its own, it is its second half. Dark colors also behave differently on a model from light ones: they swallow shadows, so the edges and the division of the parts are lost unless you bring them out. It therefore pays to count on additional highlighting of the engraved lines or on drybrushing the edges.

Use and tips

• With dark areas count on bringing the edges out, or the division of the parts will be lost
• Shake the bottle thoroughly before applying; the pigment settles at the bottom
• Apply in several thin layers; one thick one will flood the engraved lines
• Test the compatibility with a varnish or patina on an offcut of the sprue
• Settle the thinner and the cleaning of the tools according to the manufacturer's instructions for this range

Who the color is for

The color will be put to use by builders of kits from the Gundam universe building a machine in the finish of the Titans formation and by modelers who find a dark blue useful for science fiction equipment.

Store the paint out of the reach of children, work in a ventilated space and use a respirator and eye protection when spraying. Check the suitable thinner and the cleaning of the tools against the manufacturer's data for this range - Gunze carries several systems side by side that do not mix with one another.
