Macross - Regult going down town

[papa 695]

As you say Gavin you may be slow but it's coming along a treat

Very nice Gavin, like the way this is angled and all seems to fit to give a great dio.

Thanks guys! Time management with a family is a precarious affair and my wife gets easily jealous.

Well, I'm calling the base of the dio ready and finished!! FINALLY.....


Now all that need building is the Regult Battle pod.


What are your thoughts? C &C's most welcome!!

Like it, with the bot in place it will look even better...get some more people hiding behind the wall.

Thanks Si, I thought about that but I decided that the city was to be evacuated and I'd show a single intrepid newspaper photographer trying to get a snap shot of an approaching invader battle pod as it made its way through the evacuated city.

Great job on the Dio Gavin like it allot.

I've done some work on the battle pod, just worried that I'm going to over do the chipping, but at the same time its a "war machine" not show piece, so it should be scratched up and dinged. Anyway, here are a couple of pics of my work in progress - still very much in pieces!!

Once it's all painted and chipped, I'll weather it and seal it.....I think

[Guest]

I'm wishing to see how you weathered it.... By the way, looking very good so far

[Guest]

This is going to be good! Nice work

[Guest]

Looking good so far.

Well, the assembly of the Regult is nearing completion. I've attached some pics depicting a partially assembled and weathered pod and some weather legs & foot pods.


Comments and crits are welcome!!

I'm taking this to new levels of weathering for me, so this is quite an exciting process, exploring new techniques and improving on old methods. :P


I'm honestly having a blast!!

This is looking great Gavin......... and your dio base is superb. I like it a lot.

[Snowman]

Thanks Peter!


I've pottered about in the past with 40K battlefield additions, you know the odd crater and derelict building, typically in black and grey, but I've never done a diorama base for a model before, so this is all very exciting and new!!

Looking good Gavin , agre with Si needs a few more people.
