A big thankyou to everyone for their support and input on this one. I am going to have a practice on some older models at using a sponge to do weathering/chipping before I have a go at painting this one. I will have a look at some of tutorials on here as well before I start. I have enetered the model in a competition on heresy-online.net there are a couple of well done models with greenstuff and a cool ork battlewagon if anyone is interested. Now, what to do for my next project? Should I finish my other flyer or buld some more jetbikes? Anyone want to see my jetbikes? Or some terrain? |

Reminds me of the future gunship in Aliens, and to a lesser extent Avatar. A great conversion sir, its nice to actually SEE the door gunners now that the wings are no longer in the way. |

It looks rather cool. Very nice conversion. Reminds me of both the Serenity from Firefly and the Macaw air transport from the Titanium Rain comic:

Two years later, I start panting it. This thing must have driven my wife mad for the last 2 years sitting on the bookshelf collecting dust. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Trying to paint somethig on the screen has driven me potty. I just can't paint thin enough line to make it even remotely decent. The paint is either to thick and makes a thick line or it is too thin and doesn't have enough pigment left in it to make it visible. The other problem I have when using a thin brush is that the paint dries on it before I get it near the model. Any suggestions? ![]() Used a sponge to do the paint chips, but I might have over done it. |

When I painted the screens on my Marine bikes, besides the screen glare (gem finish), I only put on thin white crosshairs, with 2 different color blips (dots) on the screen. Simple, yet it gets the point across. |

Panel lines and rivets shaded. Starboard wing panels almost repainted.
