First go seems OK... pics taken of the WIP but saved for later!

Well I'm going to quit while I'm ahead!
The enamel has worked very well and I'm impressed! It's a prototype so no wear or weathering needed (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!) I'm going to try and pose it and take a decent piccy for the competition tomorrow!

Another cracking build Rich.

Always an avid reader of your build threads in the BSC or elsewhere

Thanks!

The more I practice the luckier I get!

Painted pic received safely, and it's another beaut.

Good to hear

I have to say it has turned into one of my favourites.
I think it looks ace, so weird and futuristic.
Be sad to see it go to casting... not that I have a use for it!

That said I doubt I'll be winning anything this time around the competition is (as usual!) out of this world!

Have you never thought of building any sci fi stuff Rich? I tend to find a lot of the vehicles available out there lack realism. With your details you build your tanks, anything you come up with I imagine would be great!

Simply incredible stuff, I can't wait to see it painted

Rich H · « **Reply #129 on:** March 05, 2018, 08:28:28 AM »

Thanks Chaps!

It's pretty boring paint job - just green - but it is appropriate to the era!

I've done Sci-Fi stuff in the past, I used to make a lot of Ork 40k stuff. I like to make things practical and believable. I had a lungburster (Might still haev it somewherE) which started with a fully detailed engine which then got covered up! I also built a Warhound titan and a knight (Well before they were commercially available!) Inspiration is usually the problem.

Like any artwork (though I hesitate to call my toys art...it feels wrong!) they are never finished mearly abandoned. I can get a little carried away with detail on occasion! I built my railway gun with a movign working breech and recoil system... then built it into the turret.... and you can't get to it!

I can relate

I spend more time thinking how things connect or how should they work than on building. But with my working speed I have to make compromises to get things done. And I have to remind myself a lot that I'm making gaming pieces not dioramas. Some things are really unnecessary or in the way when gaming.

Indded, I have principals... but they can be flexible at times

Problem I always have with free form stuff is inspiration.
I'm fine at using exisint gthings but lack the raw imagination to come up with new things.

Even my enw things are evolution not revolution.

Might try and get this finished:

Wow!

Missed this - excellent.

First venture into this part of the forum.

Welcome!

Very impressive. That looks like a kit you would buy.
