dsteingass Posted April 20, 2012 Report Posted April 20, 2012 (edited) I just submitted this for an IPMS review, but I thought I might post it here for anyone who is interested in looking. Painted with Vallejo Acrylics, airbrush and brush. Edited April 20, 2012 by dsteingass
RobMorales Posted April 20, 2012 Report Posted April 20, 2012 Great job, Dave! I like the weathered and worn appearance
dsteingass Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Posted April 20, 2012 Thanks Rob! Since the kit captured so much of Robert Downey Jr.'s swagger in the pose, and he is a scrapper, I thought it was appropriate ;)
dlots1701a Posted April 20, 2012 Report Posted April 20, 2012 so was half as diificult as the first kit
dsteingass Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Posted April 21, 2012 The kit wasn't difficult to build, they used the .cgi files from the movie to design it digitally, so all the alignment pins fit together perfectly, filling and sanding the seams was the difficult part. With all those panel lines, it was really hard not to get putty where it didn't belong, and even more difficult not to sand something that belonged.
