Some more progress on the Tieren ground type… The Orange enamel is terrible, so I’m not sure what I’m going to do with that, still need to paint the thighs, do some lining/weathering/painting in the battle damage, got some decals too… I’m doing a few kits so I don’t know if I’ll use this as my final entry, but it’s good practice.
Check out my new vid in which I build the 30th Anniversary 1/100 Scale Missile Phalanx from Macross! It’s my first fully painted/weathered/glued kit, so let me know what you think 😉 Thanks!
Seams could still use some work, and the weathering stuck me as a bit smudgey-looking, maybe overdone. I thought the basic paint job was nice, though, and the video itself was well done.
Thanks for watching, and for your feedback! Yeah, in hindsight I did find the seams really tough, I should have been a bit more persistent with the sanding I think. The weathering is a combination of real touch markers and dry brushing, I do think I went a bit overboard, but it was good practice, and I’m still pretty happy with it 🙂
Yeah, seams can be pretty tough on these old kits. Some things could have turned out better, but that’s how it always is. You’re right to enjoy what you’ve accomplished.
So, my main idea for the comp is the MG Geara Doga, however I’ve been working up to it/practicing my techniques first. I figured as a backup/practice I’d customise this HG Tieren Ground type, since they normally don’t get any love 😛
This is what I have to far!
I’ve just started assembly/prep and am also doing some battle damage before…[Read more]
