very nice work, Francesco ,as said do like the added detail, like the flag a good touch and the antenna , did the kit come with that ?

always wonder why there not on most kits,

the building coming along nicely as well keep up the good work,

look forward to seeing more

[Guest]

Wow! Looking good there Francesco.

[Guest]

Thank you Monica and Andy.

@monica

Flag and antenna were not in the kit, and even if they were i wouldn't have used them as I they would be so thick to destroy the look of the model (in this scale).

I'm still working on the building, straightening some elements and looking for the right colors: doors and frame are now gray and look better.

In the meanwhile, I started the girl. She's not Boudicca and I'm not Paul , so I don't know how it will end up but I like her for now.

Thanks for looking,

Francesco

P.S. I tried to take another picture with the building behind but the wall dropped over the tank and now I have to glue back antenna and hatches

Wow, I reckon you're doing a great job on that figure Francesco. Is she plaster?

[Guest]

Many thanks mates.

Will try to give another layer today

@Joe

I used Milliput, if this answer your question.

I'm back here, going slowly, adding a bit of putty and sanding, a bit of putty and sanding ...

I'm learning though, I think I've found the right putty consistence to better model it, but it's not that easy and still a lot to do.

They're looking great Francesco.

[Guest]

Genial and creative! Simply excellent

I wishing to see them finished

[Guest]

Thank you Joe and Polux.

Hope to see them finished soon too, but I'm taking my time trying to understand what to improve. The hardest part will be the face, hands and feet (which I damaged while sanding).

Yesterday i tried to put some color on the secondary figure, just to see the effect, doesn't look too bad as a first try.

These figures are fine Francesco.

My comment is; take as exemple the second one; the dark colour "help" to see it better, so my advice is once painted in grey, Brown or dark colours you will see different

You can use a wash for the skin, this help a lot!

Cheers
