I think the scale has something to do with that. <br /><br />I'll be looking forward to some WiP (frustrated or otherwise) and the finish!Swelterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16519522355028444705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898280664801491235.post-22786033985202722092011-09-20T01:45:48.527-07:002011-09-20T01:45:48.527-07:00I think the model stands about 5inches tall.

So I switched to airbrush by default, otherwise the kit was going to take me forever.<br /><br />My friend Wayne airbrushed his kit and did very basic paintjob. Just flat colours, shading only in the recesses and that was it. It still looks really impressive.Sendrakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11114892451151016231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898280664801491235.post-29674928799689964692011-09-19T07:11:36.855-07:002011-09-19T07:11:36.855-07:00I've had a similar experience with Gundam. Lo...I've had a similar experience with Gundam. Looks kinda cool but hard for me to care about for some reason. The other thing is that painting a lot of these kits is in a completely different scale than I usually paint and, after an initial foray into both figure models and robot kits, it became apparent that I needed to get an airbrush and some proficiency with it to really make these work out.<br /><br />For some reason I seem to have a reluctance to go down the airbrush path and so...<br /><br />How tall is the model?<br /><br />And I'm gonna say: Awesome model kits + painting = winSwelterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16519522355028444705noreply@blogger.com
