voozet Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 This is the model i built a few years ago. Some of you have seen this, watching my Remora build thread. Construction was a series of failures. Initially i wanted to build a 1:12 hover bike but I didn't manage to create a rider figure. So i changed the plan and finished it as a 1:35 scale sci-fi fighter. Then everything went wrong while painting: the paint layer was terribly grainy. I decided that only heavy weathering can save it. This way a clean star fighter became a planetary fighter (from a planet with a very harsh climate) 🤣 24 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the seat pilot? Is a kit part? That's a scratch also. Everything is made of HIPS styrene. The pilot's seat has a frame made of a disposable spoon. I cut out or carved the rest. And the rockets are pieces of styrene tubes and strips and a little bit of a milliput extra fine. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maginot Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Very neat indeed. It looks like such fun to imagine then build. The seat is indeed a highlight. It's a creative way to recycle plastic teaspoons, that's for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
