The large tanks are kept in place with the help of some Milliput. The tank tracks have been added although despite the detail added to the wheels, nobody will see them as they’re pretty much covered by the sides.
decided I needed a back cannon, it’s made mainly from the upper back of an extra “Hell Custom” torso and a section of ball point pen body. Secondary arms from extra “Dorado”…
Update time. Started painting on some parts. I know that’s not the usual technique of primering the whole kit then add base colors but this way I can make modifications based…
I was toying with the idea of making a sniper rifle. But I need a spare right hand, so I decided to make a mold of it using the existing part and cast it in acrylic.
I had to…
Where do I get some of that Acrylic mold material from? Does it turn into a rubber? I’ve only used a rubber compound in the past to create barrells etc. Do you fill the mold with resin afterwards.
Thanks for sharing with us all
Hi, sorry I was not too clear in my post. The mold is made from a silicon compound ( its feel is flexible like rubber) I got it at a local art store. It’s brand is Easycast. When the mold drys/set, I would remove the original part with a scapel. Next I would pour in liquid resin compound (acrylic).
Hope this is clearer.
Thanks! Still need to apply the decals (well, wait for them to arrive first), then do some final weathering and matte varnish. I actually think I did too much battle damage before the decals arrived. I’ll make it work though!! 😀
ok so Engine details ready and Cocpit too, some details for de inner sides and black primer all to star adding color the black primer will do shadow efects and base for metalizer some parts of the engine. i also made the seat belts and a little compartment on rear side of the chair. here´s the photos
I finally found some time to start. I had the plan, just to use the kit and work with all the detail on it. Didn’t saw it as limitation, more as a challenge. But as you can see, I already try to use some clear plastic for the console…
Cosmetic modifications are done, all that’s left is clean up. In the meantime, painting’s begun. Wanted to make something in the similar vain as one of the Kagerou units so I’ll be going for a similar colour scheme.
