Tabio Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Hello here is my only build for this year(!), completed this week. I haven't done a 1/144 build since I was a kid, but decided to go that route as I don't have anywhere specific to make or put my models at the moment due to being in a new house we're redecorating, so small was good! I used the Zactoman F-15 set which included new afterburner cans, CFT pylon and ejector seats, which are all superbly cast. Decals were printed from templates found at the planetspejic website, also including control panel decals. It was brush painted with citadel colours and vallejo before recieving a couple of coats of klear, then decals, another coat of klear then an oil wash of paynes grey. I then airbrushed xtracolour xdff but the oil was looked much worse after that unfortunately, I hadnt had that problem before. It is missing the code near the refuelling port as the numbers would be in white which can't be done with the printer, and I didnt have any that small anywhere. Anyway here's the pics- Cheers for looking! Edited December 12, 2012 by Tabio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basosz Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 That's pretty damn good. It looks both tiny and big at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnylurve Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 1/144?!?!? Blimey, that's a corker. You know what though, something to put the size into perspective (coin, 1/72 model etc) would really add to your efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
