Retro chibi junk build.


Recommended Posts

Well not been around for what seems like years but I haven't been completely idle, finished a Gundam Kashatriya a few weeks back and now on with this scrap kit bash. I was going to be a reto space craft and has some how ended up a little chidi diorama thing.

 

WIP pics so you can see what's happened up till now. Really just a few more panel lines.

Love it!

I always love to see someone create somethign out of nothing. That is pure creativity. One could call it constructivism, if that word was not already used for something else.

So a bit of colour and we now have a proper tile, Minions on Mars. As this is very cartoon like I'm going with a very serious paint scheme, so lots of weathering etc.  Little Stuart now has his backpack just need to make him a space suite now, any pointers for this would be great.

 

Cheers.

Still a little clean up to do but I think he is looking a little Flash Gordon.... used a bit of green stuff to make the added parts, tricky with him being so small but happy with the rolled up sleeves look.

 

@Pete in LincsI couldn't find a glass type bowl to go over his head otherwise I would have used that one.

How about, just to be daft, a snorkel? Just an ordinary pink one.

Now that's is would have been great if I wasn't so lazy...but I did use the pink idea on the marigolds. Quick and simple painting done just the eye ball to add in.

Slow I know but I'm still at it....😜

 

Base paint now done and I have started on some decals and weathering. first pic to show the back of the rocket, the rocket was painted with a coat of GW silver and  a bit of Vallejo chrome. the thrusters bells then got a coat of GW agrax eather and turquoise contrast I think it was. Did similar on the tower but with a brass base, I did get some paint peel of with masking tape so will need to fix that. I need some minions symbol decals now before finished of with some chipping and grime.

Just about finished this one now, just a tope coat and some pictures, but I thought I would show my cheep bottom decals done on printing paper....😜

 

And in the background of the last pic, is my current build I'm on with. A mech insect thing, kit bashed from gundam Kashatriya, that will be my 3rd using the Kashatriya wing binders as a base.
