Just finished the Salan Scout shown previously in WiPs
Paint is enamel (brushed), and weathering is done with thinned acrylics (so classic !)My friend is very enthousiast to get this piece in his collection, so I think I have done the job right… tell me what you think !

amazing work! that green looks fantastic, Im not shure if the weathering doesn’t show on the photos but i think it could be heavier, dont you think?
that stand is gorgeos.
Thanks Angelizer !
I made very little weathering, as I wanted to get it as close as the original TV Series appearance, just a little wash in black to reveal the panel lines, and a second wash exclusively on the “turrets” to shw more of it.
The poor ambiant light and the non-flashed pictures doesn’t reveal all the deepness of the paintjob, in reality it’s a little heavier than the one visible here.
And the fact I didn’t knew if my friend would like it heavy weathered or not…
Compared to the scale (1/2500), I could have made shades on lighter green to get the used effect, that’s right too !
For the green, I used Humbrol 101 (enamel) and brushed it (no aero on this model) after gray primer for resin.
