Thanks guys
Another dio built this weekend and is currently being tested. FlyandFight :wink1:

Just waiting on some feedback from Pete, as I gave him a couple of options in relation to the masking around the light openings.

I've started to lay on some primer







I'll get the priming finished tomorrow and them they'll need to sit for a day to cure before I wet sand them ready for the top coats.

Wow that v3.0 has come to life with just the primer, its hard to visualise when I'm designing and building how they will look with some paint on :clap
Great job

I agree, the 3.0 version looks awesome! So glad I switched it up!

 

[Brundledonk]

Thanks for the kind comments guys

I've got all the prep done and I'm literally just about to start slinging some paint on the metallic areas



The big boy is up first and I think it's going to be akward to handle due to its size ( that's what she said )
Later on I'll take a pic with a figure to try and give and idea of the scale of it

 

[FlyAndFight]

Knowing that the smaller version fits perfectly inside a Detolf shelf space, I'm loving the larger and wider version even more!

Can't wait!

 

[Brundledonk]

Time for another update and I had a slight colour malfunction .

Managed to paint all the steps aluminium instead of steel. :slap
I wonder if I can buy a talent button for my arbrush on eBay

Nice and shiny though


Soon put right after a coat of Alclad steel and some pale burnt metal


And the rest also

 

[Brundledonk]

A bit shade added to give a grimy look


And of course the others got the same treatment


And with a figure for scale on the V 3.0

 

[Brundledonk]

And with a V2.0

 

[FlyAndFight]

I really like your metallic paint apps. :rock

Yeah! I used to build 1/48 and 1/35 model kits ALCLAD metallic cote paints and i agree that they are the BEST i saw. So Pete i do believe you are an excellent model kit painter. Those cote paints are not cheap and those are the best in market for 1/72, 1/48, 1/32, 1/35 model kits. I saw your 1/48? CORSAIR on your desk. So i guess you are an outstanding model kit painter.

Keep doing your best. I trust in you. Excellent job!

[Super Serg]

No mate, this is just the first batch, I build these individually and will be honest they are taking longer than expected to machine and put together, so to keep things moving and to get them out to our customers as fast as we can me & Pete meet up every couple of Months (as Pete lives in a neighbouring country to me) and hand over any completed builds and talk about future projects.

@ Pete looking good as always buddy :clap
