Firstly,

awesome. simply awesome. im following this to the last drop of paint.

and i always find it amazing how primer will pull a hodge podge of pieces together. when its not painted it looks like you just glued random parts all willy nilly. then primer...and BOOOM. it looks coherent. love it.

keep it up.

Afternoon Every Peeps,

Thank you all so very much for your comments, it's great having you all along for the ride, much appreciated.

Things have been difficult the last couple of days, I seem to of lost some momentum.

Nothing seems to want to fit together.


1. One of the BEST ;D things about scratch building is that you don't have instructions to follow.


2. One of the WORST :'( things about scratch building is that you don't have instructions to follow.


The classic double edged lightsaber thingy.....


I'm experiencing number 2 at the moment, big time.


This usually happens when painting is involved, not my favourite thing to do.

But anyhoo, here goes.............


Glued in the reflectors from some old LED lamps








Assembled engine innards










Splashed around some more primer, Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm primer








Colin drawn






Colin beheaded








Started to re-build Colin for much less than six million dollars with everybodys friend, especially Colins, Apoxie sculpt.






Also cut a small wedge and bent his legs back, filled and sculpted, my first ever attempt





Filled and sculpted the middle section.





A quick splash of primer to show me what's occuring







Hit the engines and all additional components with matt black









Chrome silver





Painted innards











Masked and gloss blacked ready for other stuff to happen














Thats about the size of it so far this week.

Take care

Gag

You are a genius at re-purposing found objects from around the house.
Really inspirational. Should be required viewing at Scratch-builder's University.
