Farnarkle Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Hello All, This one has had a very tortuous existence, nearly binned twice, consigned to the shelf of doom twice. Had all sorts of issues with this particular build. Fit issues with a step in the nose. paint issues with paint de-naturing in the airbrush so that dark earth evolved a strange pinkish hue..... grrrrrrr. It was only due to me needing to familiarise and experiment with a new airbrush that she survived and eventually completed. Thanks for looking and happy modelling Ian 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 One of my favourite marks of Spit in one of my favourite schemes. Whatever travails you had during the build you've produced and super model with a great finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Modeller Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Very nice Farnakle, she looks great to me and well done you for sticking with it, even though it tried desperately to avoid completion - I'm glad that you dragged it across the finish line in the end!! Well done!! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
