ScootyPuffJunior Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Kuat Systems Engineering Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft Slave I Bandai Slave I (1/144 scale); completed in Tamiya and Vallejo acrylics, MIG enamels, and Secret Weapon Miniatures pigments. The stand and the Star Wars decal are from the Fine Molds version of this model and the mythosaur skull was made with my Cameo cutting machine. All and all, I think this kit turned out great. I was pretty nervous about starting it because the paint job is pretty complex, but once I got in the thick of it I was okay. It could probably stand to use some more weathering and I'll probably do some before I take it to the model club meeting next month, but for now I'm calling it done. The work in progress log can be found here. Comments and criticism is welcomed as always! Edited January 21, 2017 by ScootyPuffJunior 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandsaw Steve Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Looks great! Wouldn't touch it again if it were me, revisiting models after they are finished is courting disaster. One paint spill and it's 'Dear oh dear.' Perhaps boba just cleaned his ship occasionally. 🤔 Edited January 21, 2017 by Reconcilor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Now that is fantastic, the colours and weathering turned out really very good. I still need to build one of these SW Bandai kits and Slave 1 might have to be the kit i buy first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
