COLONIAL VIPER MOEBIUS KIT.







Hey kids. Kicked off this great kit. The new VIPER from cool model company Moebius. Easy to put together with a clever way of hiding the seams, thus keeping filling to a minimum. Assembled then final primer pictures. I am using Vauxhall Haze Blue heavily weathered down to give a great used look.

MIKE WALLACE' "ETERNAL PATROL"











Author Mike Wallace approached me a short while ago with an exciting project. He saw my model of the REVELL 1/72nd Gato U.S. submarine on this blog. He asked me to submit his publishers a few shots and they chose an action shot for the cover. The book is out this month and they made a great job with the water effects added to the model that was just held up against a pale sky. Thanks to Mike Wallace for chosing my work for his book.

WEATHERING THE BSG-75. BATTLESTAR GALACTICA.

























This is a strange model. It's supposed to be something like half a mile long. So when they bring out a model that is such a small scale, you have to do it right or the thing starts to look like a toy. Cleaned, prepared and assembled. Laid down the ever-faithful HALFORDS grey primer then hit it with Moondust Silver. Weathered with M.I.G pastels and sealed with Humbrol matt varnish. Some pictures of the progress so far.

RANGER-3 APPLYING DECALS.













Started puting these on last night. Very hard with all the crazy stripes. Also the manufacturer has made a large mistake and made the Stars And Stripes in mirror image and looks a bit odd. Anyway here are a couple of quick pics to keep the Buck Rogers fans happy and when finished I will post some studio pictures.
