DenJuve Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Finished my first and last model of 2009. Started it way back in march and got it don last night. It isn't perfect but I'm glad I got it don. With my avarage of one build a year I achieved my objective for this year. I build it mostly out of the box with the exception of the Tamiya photo-etch set. Painted it with Tamiya acrylics using for the first time my Iwata micron CM-SB. Being used to a Badger 150 this is realy a giant step up. Not sure what's going to be my next build. I started the old Tamiya 1/32 Tomcat. Going to be the VF-84 bird like in the movie the final coutdown. But I'm expecting the arrival of the new Tamiya Spit. Propably the Spit will win.

THX1138 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Vipers look so much cooler in anything besides the default grey. This one for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gambler Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 (edited) Wow,.....beautiful job Eric!! Your Viper turned out superb, outstanding work on the colours and paintwork, and the details are excellent. Did you have to mix these colours, or are they straight from the bottle?....I'd be very interested to know what they were, being Tamiya Paints, I'd be surprised if they were straight out of the bottle. Cheers, Jeff. Edited November 29, 2009 by Gambler Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chuck540z3 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 One of the best versions of an Aggressor I've ever seen. Great photography too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DenJuve Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 Thx everyone So what's the pilot looking at? :) Like I said, it isn't perfect. I forgot to check the position of the pilot once seated in the cockpit. So now I presume he's looking at......... whatever . Haven't got the stumage to fix it. Did you have to mix these colours, or are they straight from the bottle?....I'd be very interested to know what they were, being Tamiya Paints, I'd be surprised if they were straight out of the bottle. I mixed two out of three as per the instructions. Dark green : XF-70, dark brown : XF-52(1) +XF-64(1), light brown : XF-15(1) + XF-59(1) + XF-2(1). Hope this helps. And I have a couple of shots I took last night. And then the batery of my camera gave up so now more pics for now. Eric Quote Link to post Share on other sites
