For many, a good chrome paint is the Holy Grail of scale modelling. (Hold on, was the grail chrome?) Anyway, as a total Tamiya LP11 fan, I was excited to read, I think on Spencer Pollard's Kit Box, that Tamiya had a chrome hidden in its Lacquer Painto line. So I picked up a jar of LP48 "Sparking Silver." And, as usual, I did nothing with it.
But here we are in 2026 with some Beskar armor to paint, so I finally got it in the airbrush. My 1/48 Mando was primed in Mister Sur-Face-Er Black and then hit with the LP48. Not bad, I think. (I haven't tried to mask it, so no warranties it will hold up to tape, but Mando don't need no masking.)
P.S.: No I'm not inferring that Din Djarin is the devil, it's a song lyric. Anyone know which artist?
