I'm really happy with how the legs came out!

The red details really stand out and make the frame look interesting.

1/100 Zerstore part 1

Gallery January 18, 2015 GN 4 Comments

Because I'm not painting the blue or white pieces (actually I'm thinking I might mask the white pieces and paint some grey on them) I started with the small red detail pieces, the hydraulics etc. that I would need done ahead of frame assembly. I went for a classic candy coat combination of Alclad gloss … Continue Reading ››

Assembled and ready for some weathering. The kit is gloss coated at this point which is a good surface to paint on some weathering now that the panel lines are dry.

I saw these puzzles mentioned online and didn't manage to note in time that HLJ was stocking them, so ended up getting them on a re-stock.

When I opened the package I was surprised to see a couple of rather large instruction sheets. There are two metal … Continue Reading ››

1/60 Patlabor Helldiver part 4

Gallery December 23, 2014 GN Leave a comment

Almost every section of Helldiver has a seam line, and the fit between the two halves is often such that it really needs to be removed.

Continuing on with the legs, I've masked the inner section that's already painted and glued the leg halves together with some liquid … Continue Reading ››

Due to almost every piece needing some seam-line removal, this build is going slowly....

The feet were very plain, so once I … Continue Reading ››
