SimonT - "Does my bum look big in this?" A wee lass in an armoured battle suit

[papa 695]

Looking very nice Simon really liking the colour.

[Mickc1440]

Good choice sticking with the red it really suits the machine. Reminds me of the suits used in Titanfall on the playstation

[SimonT]

Cheers Rick

Richard - great to see you back :thumb2: It was one of those kits that just jumped out and said build me when I was looking through ebay late one night/early morning - it could very well turn out rubbish but I had to give it a go

Chris - thanks for dropping by. Ah, the wabbit. Rather a long running saga of another sci-fi figure - a Lara Croft style lass with an RPG and a rather psycho looking rabbit as her partner in arms, being carried on her back in a rucksack and now armed with an assault rifle
They have had a few rebuilds, breakages, and attempts at paint. They are now rebuilt and modified, primed and waiting for me to pluck up courage to have another go with the paint. My figure painting is not the best - I know what the end result should be but I don't think the ability is there to pull it off :smiling5:
If you really want to waste your time there are eight pages of waffle to be found here Seal Team

Ian - cheers. Makes a change from green and brown :smiling5:

Mick - sorry, don't know it but the makers probably got inspiration from a variety of sources such as games or the war-games and films mentioned by others

[JR]

I was going to suggest 4 BO :nerd:

[SimonT]

Morning John - sorry :smiling5: it was originally going to be green

the red is much more of a challenge

[Steve Jones]

Well if you want a challenge Mr T let's talk camo schemes LOL

[SimonT]

Wavey line camo is ok Steve but I don't fancy trying digital :surprised:


made a start on some details

looking at the large photos I didn't do a very good job of it either - I see a few bits that need tidying :sad-face:

[papa 695]

Looking very good Simon, and the untidy bits as you call them, all part of the weathering.

[Steve Jones]

Your doing a grand job as it is. Liking all the extra detailing

[Guest]

Really bloomin' nice Simon. You've managed to make the red look very metallic, which is a great touch.

[rtfoe]

Actually choosing a single color rather than a camo helps bring out the little detailed lights. As it is the kit has lots of surface edges creating highlights for the metalic red.

Good job Simon. :thumb2:

Cheers,
Richard

[minitnkr]

Shaping up beautifully. PaulE

[SimonT]

Ian - nice idea but I will need to do something or they will annoy me :smiling5:

Steve - ta

Peter - very pleased with how my experiment turned out. I guess it should work with any of the translucent colours

Richard - cheers

Paul - thank you


Not a lot done today but here are the photos anyway


John - token 4BO for the pilots chair and a few small panels

[Mini Me]

Nice work Mr. T. Rick H.

[Neil Merryweather]

I 'm loving the red,too, Simon.
Nice gesture on the 4BO , though,and I like the damaged decals.
All in all looking very nice indeed,Mr Stark.
