Only after taking pictures did I notice there were still some splotches from the panel liner I didn't clean up at all. Oh well, too late now...
Nearly finished, just some weathering to go. Very pleased with it so far, heck I may have to build another winged thing!
This one is now finished!
Very happy with how the build came out.
The red polarized glass on the vision blocks was made from red foil off a Christmas ribbon and all the tents and packs were painted in artist's oil paints.
I also use PVA glue to attach light lenses as it dries clear and doesn't fog the parts up.
Zentradi Fleet. All 1/20000 scale plastic kits from Arii. From the Japanese animation "Super Dimensional Fortress Macross".
Better angle/view of the scabbard and mounting arm. The arm's fully poseable and the scabbard is removable.
Really got stuck into this over the weekend, and today I finished it ready for the IPMS competition in April!
Mud was made from a mixture of pigments, PVA glue and paint thinners..stank to high heaven but did the job.
Also features pinstriping decals from a car kit.
I have almost finished the nearest 1/35 scale Tamiya Centurion. As with the others, I have modified it into an IDF 1967 era tank.
Here are some of my 1/35th scale IDF armour assembled as though rushing to the Suez front in October 1973. The models are all by Academy and built by myself. The M60's are meant to be newly received from the US in that time of urgent need, and are being guided by the experienced crew in the M51.
Oh yeah, not only did I scratch-build a straw hat, I scratch-built a fully pose-able mounting arm for it.
The pilot's head is pretty much my first attempt at hand-painting a figure. It's not great, but considering I've seen some pilots in "official" builds that look like they're related to the "thin your paints" Space Marine, and most of the time the hat covers everything I can live with it.
VF-22S Sturmvogel II, SVF-41 Black Aces 100th Anniversary. 1/72 scale plastic kit from Hasegawa. From the Japanese animation "Macross 7".
