The Madhatter Posted May 19, 2018 Author Share Posted May 19, 2018 Sorry for the lack of updates - I have been busy with other projects of late It's almost done now - just a few more bits to add and it's finished. Still needs a semi-flat coat to go over the decals but that won't take long Overall, I'm pretty happy with it. If I'd had more enthusiasm I would go the whole detailing hog but I just can not be bothered. OOB is fine for me. Besides, none of the Eduard AM stuff had been released when I had started it so never mind I accidentally broke off the crew ladder and went to place the cover over the resulting hole but then the piece slipped off and went inside - so out came the Milliput and I covered over the hole. The decals performed beautifully and are surprisingly resistant to moving. That's it now until it's finished but thanks for tuning in Si Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Matt Foley Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) Outstanding job. Your paint work is phenomenal. Did you just spray lightened tones? Use pastels? or both? Edited May 19, 2018 by Mr Matt Foley Quote Link to post Share on other sites

john53 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Beautiful job! Like the various "shades of grey". I built the old Revell 1/144 one and blasted it flat black, this is what I really wanted, maybe I'll try again. Thanks for showing, great job.---John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
