- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Keep ON building such outstanding stuff Michel!  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

It looks alive to me. Give it a pair of eyes and I could believe it was a new species living at 20,000 fathoms  ;D

Really looking forward to seeing this finished  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

MichelC

Thank you both! It does somehow look organic, doesn't it? Kow Yokoyama's magic. The camo I have in mind will be appropriate, I think.

M

MichelC

I got some preliminary steps done before laying down the camo.

First a metallic undercoat in view of the chipping effect in strategic areas: where pilot and maintenance crew step, along panel edges and especially on the antigrav pods which double as emergency landing gear.  ;D



Next masking liquid applied in said areas.



Last step before the camo: pre-shading.



Tomorrow I'll get down to business!

M

MichelC

It took 2 evenings to lay down the underside color. It's rather carelessly done but that's because not much will be visible once the model is fixed to the base.



M

MichelC

The upper side color is done.



I used a 50/50 mix of Tan Yellow and Iraqui Sand



One more color to add. That's when the real fun starts!
