Title: 'not' Aliens APC...
Post by: dwartist on 19 July 2012, 09:43:17 PM
...in UN white for a 'client'. Very poor resin casting which needed quite a bit of remedial work.

Awesome paintjob.
Is that "Heavy Carrier" somewhere available?

Was also thinking about a white paintjob for my own APC, to go with the 4A Snowtroopers ;)

Very nice paint job. The white works much better then I thought it would.

What scale is it?

1/48 but OOP I think (not on Frontier Models listings anyway - somebody else has it...I'll try to find it and post the link). Pics for scale

I love the UN scheme Dwartist!
I have that one too and I must concur with Dwartist, not the best model. There is a better one produced by http://www.bambammodelproductions.com/blog/aliens/.

Whatever  state that model reached you in, you've left it looking fantastic.
Top job, hats off once again. :-*

Now I hear there's the slightest possibility that it's not available, I really want one!

Here's a link to the APC on Frontier models. My computer told me the site was dodgy, nothing seemed amiss but beware if you click this link, just a word of warning. :)

I'll have another 'not' Aliens APC (28mm) to paint soon - this one will be top quality!
