Faraway Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 This didn't take long to do and was quite good fun. Certainly different from any of my previous builds. The parts fit was very good, as is the detail and no flash, unusually for me I didn't use any PE extras, there is a set but was more expansive than the kit, so I build her OOB. Which probably accounts for why it didn't take too long to build. And, also unusually for me, I didn't use Colourcoats paint. I used what ever Tamiya Acrylic I had to hand, that was an equivalent to the Revell paint call out. Once finished I add a wash of dark brown to take the brightness from the paint, sort of works. For a kit costing around twenty-five quid, I think it came out ok. 25 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I have the impression from following the build, that you had a pleasant relaxed time with this one. It's been very pleasant to read too. And now we see that the result is darned good as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was different, bit like the forthcoming build. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's looking real good though, and I bet being able to see her innards gets her a lot more attention than something you slaved over for at least a couple of weeks (months for the rest of us) replete with swear-inducing pe and the like. The wash really brings out the detail too. On with the cog then! David 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
