Andy Moore Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Just seen this pop up on Scalemates as an upcoming release. Quite a clever idea really. It says 1/3000 but that doesn't mean much. I'm guessing something like the Bandai box scale releases in size. Don't know who's producing the kit, presumably not Iwata themselves. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/iwata-arkhitect--1354608 Andy 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankymodeler Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Looks like it was inspired by a top-feed airbrush. Eric aka The Yankymodeler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think whoever wrote that article got their maths wrong though. The promo image shows the 'real' ship as being 500 meters long. In 1/3000 that would be about 16½ cm. Still a decent size for the model though. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sardaukar Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Haha, airbrush for sure, it reminds me of being bored in highschool and imagining my pens were like star destroyer type capital ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
