Mikeew Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 A rare foray into Sc-Fi for me! Finemolds 1/48 Rebel Alliance Snowspeeder, Incom modified T-47 Airspeeder. Weekend build, was an absolute breeze, almost snap-tite fit all round. The details are superb and a weathering dream. Overall paint Gunze H338 FS36495 Light Grey over a pre-shading of Tamiya XF-63 Weathering was... Panel wash using Paynes Grey oil paint with Humbrol thinners. Tamiya XF-25 Light Sea Grey Gunze H77 Tire Black Photos taken in the back garden as the diorama potential was too good to miss! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andre Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Nice work! I've loved the Snowspeeder ever since watching Empire in the theatre back in 1980. Good weather for it, too. ;-) Cheers, Andre Quote Link to post Share on other sites
