madcap386 Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 My first post here, wanted to share my recent macross work.. Its an old arii kit... plenty of seams, thin plastic and lousy fittings.. Its handpainted finished with a flat topcoat... Took me quite a while, but finally its complete... The WIP can be found here: http://plamo.outthere.info/forum/showthread.php?tid=2470 Any comments are welcome so i can improve! Quote
Berttt Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Hey that's not bad at all! Nice work man and thanks for sharing. Berttt Quote
cool8or Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Handbrushed? Waw! looks great! Congratulations! Quote
big F Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 (edited) Hand brushed. Well looks o.k to me. Thanks for posting Edited July 5, 2007 by big F Quote
jardann Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 That's a great job on that old kit! The finish looks very fine. Did you modify the waist joint? Or is that the way the kit builds up? It just looks a little skinny/fragile to me for a combat machine. Quote
astromanED Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 I never liked the kit, but you make it look so good. Terrific work, I love the subtle weathering. Quote
madcap386 Posted July 5, 2007 Author Posted July 5, 2007 Thanks guys! Yeah hand painted.. The kit is actually pretty small.... and can be hand painted without any problems. This shows how big it is compared to a 1/100 Gundam.... Did you modify the waist joint? Or is that the way the kit builds up? It just looks a little skinny/fragile to me for a combat machine. Yeah, did a little mod on the waist joint for extra mobility. Hmm.. yeah, it does look abit skinny after the mod.. Quote
MechTech Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 That looks great! I never really did care for that kit and I have a couple too! Quote
pfunk Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Very nice, I think brushing adds the scale for a smaller model Quote
HWR MKII Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 Looks really god and a nice subtle bit of wear on the edges too Quote
