Hi all, stop listening to your justin bieber CD and listen up!
well the drop pod is finished. i've not put decals on as it was a test piece and didnt want to waste them, also theres imperial eagles stuck on by the previous owner right where i would have put them....
Anyway, as an excersize in weathering and airbrush work i both suceeded and failed.
The airbrushing was fine, i'm looking forward to using it a lot more in future. The smooth colour transitions for highlights are awesome. however...
Although i think the hairspray technique chipped weathering looks ok, its FAR too much work to get a good effect and think i will stick with sponge chipping in future! (see the previous post for an example of this..)
I only concentrated on the outside and not the interior as it was built before i got it and couldnt get to most of it so i bodged it all in an hour or two!
Anyway heres the pics,

Tales from my past, Episode 2
IMPERIAL GUARD SENTINEL
Stop playing modern warfare 3 for a second and pay attention!
Ok ok, so its more yellow...
Its really just cooincidence as i once started an Aliens themed imperial guard force but didnt get very far! (ive some guardsmen painted also....) This one i painted using lots of tips from forge worlds model masterclass book. it really is a handy tome!
Who knows, maybe one day i will get round to doing them properly! but i doubt it!
Anyway, heres thebeast in all its yellow glory.
