danimalmagic Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) Hi all, I finished it up this morning, it had has some additional lighter filters applied once it was all standing and i have added some other minor details but the guy is happy so i am done. The last picture is both of them together, the customer wanted the battle damaged one more heavily dirtied and weathered. All sealed with Tamiya XF-86 Matt. Before you ask it is a Mecha model from a PC game called Metal Gear Solid 4, i am no gamer so its a bit out of my wheelhouse. In the game it has been left alone unused in the Arctic for years so it needed to be a little more weathered. The guy i built them both for supplied me digital renderings from the game so i could use those as a guide. I am not sure if i would want to build a lot of these kits as they are quite complicated in terms of spraying, it would be easy to build up the parts but then you would have a real problem masking. Hey Ho, Here You Go. Edited September 7, 2017 by danimalmagic BloorwestSiR and Gazzas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 They both look fantastic! Having built the undamaged version, I know how complicated the paint job is on them. Carl danimalmagic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzas Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Great looking details on these strange builds. Not my cup of tea, but outstanding workmanship, I acknowledge. danimalmagic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
