rockpopandchips Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 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. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SprueMan Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) 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. Edited September 16, 2022 by SprueMan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 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. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Minion space suit? Hmmm Large soap bubble? Some sort of two part clear ball with Dalek like claw and sucker sticking out of the front? Or, A Goldfish bowl over his head and the Goldfish is still in there? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter Rose Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Yeah I like Petes suggestions, and a silver retro suit to go with it would be cool! And that backpack is very nice 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted September 26, 2022 Author Share Posted September 26, 2022 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. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 How about, just to be daft, a snorkel? Just an ordinary pink one. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. find duplicate values online 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted October 14, 2022 Author Share Posted October 14, 2022 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. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted November 3, 2022 Author Share Posted November 3, 2022 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. temp pic hosting 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
