Muttley 2,182 Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 (edited) I swear, all I did was open the box and have a look, The usual top quality BanDai kit. Super crisp mouldings, snap-fix and in the one colour grey. Next thing, the head has miraculously built itself (while I watch a film) Edited May 7 by Muttley Post incomplete 7 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muttley 2,182 Posted May 7 Author Report Share Posted May 7 So now, I've primed it all, and have decided a medium grey overcoat and over weathered to look used, has to be used. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Muttley 2,182 Posted May 8 Author Report Share Posted May 8 We all know Star Wars vehicles were the ultimate kitbash builds. But it is fun what you can identify parts. So far I've found a Pegasus engine from a Harrier, and a tank hull. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grunhertz 15,449 Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Nice one jase, if it builds like the ATST it'll be a peach, a word of warning Don't let spirit based thinners near the weathering the Bandai plastic goes very brittle 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muttley 2,182 Posted May 12 Author Report Share Posted May 12 A few layers of greys to build up the tones (hope they work) phone/flash has drowned the tones a bit. (Think) it was Vallejo US Grey, then, Dark Ghost Grey, with an attempt at marbling with USAF Light grey. This evening ws patches of Tamiya xf54 Dark Sea Grey. Needs lightening a bit more, so i think I'll mix in some white, then thin it and ghost layers on, slowly building up the lighter tones. Onwards Buttercup! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
