I closed all the hatches whilst spraying but now they will be opened up. Wheels and tracks to be added plus 3 decals. I think finally solved a good base colour for tracks, Vallejo Track primer then equal parts of Black and Dark Brown Vallejo Wash applied liberally……..we will see……then weathering of the whole model…… looks great the colours just go so well. excellent paint-man-ship (if thats a word. if not it is now) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point I’ll look into this, thanks for the heads up…. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Phil Sometimes scale effect, especially when photographed, offers a different look then we might have been expecting. Back in the day, I would photograph a model underway, just to see how it looked from a different perspective and the pics always found errors and re-dos I never saw looking just by eye.

Peterpools Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Phil Good question - I normally call it a day when I'm happy the way things loo and stopped driving myself nuts a long time ago as finishing these days is my number one priority. If I'm happy, then that's all that counts Keep 'em comin Peter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinM Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Phil I am sitting on somewhere in the neighborhood of 200+ and that is a small collection compared to some out there.I have more in my collection than the the Hobby Town in Mobile has minus their Gundam kits they have a bunch of those.Hopefully the good Lord blesses me with a long fruit life cause I am going to need it.😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Kev 200 plus - yikes, that’s some stash and easily will require you to hang around for a good 50 more years 😉 My humble stash of unstarted and to be built kits is hovering between 12-18. These days, I have been selling off Or binning kits I know I am not going to build or even finish (shelf queens) for a nice loss 🤨 or just toss them with no plans of replacing the count. I do keep adding kits but at a much slower pace and am a lot more selective on what I buy. To be honest, with the Viggen on order, Kotare’s new Spit Mkla and SB’s new F4B all on the horizon for Sometime next year, except for some 48 and even 72nd scale purchases, I’m not planning on any other major purchases at all. keep ‘em comin Peter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
