thought I would have a go at this one. Makes a nice change from wood modelling. I'm not sure what direction I will be heading in as to regard painting, but hopefully I'll pick up ideas as I go along.

Week 1

Very little to do this week. Put the gun turret together loosely and put the cockpit panel on and test fitted with the base.



Further weeks may come a little quicker as I have issues 1,2 and 3.

Great start Rob -- looking forward to seeing what you can do with it!
If it is only a game then why are you keeping score?

Done issue 2. Again, not much to do. Picked up another issue 1 so I have an extra gun. Awaiting some materials tto do that this week.

Next up is issue 3 which has the control yokes. While the yokes are indeed grey/silver on the movie prop, the metal used here is just too bright, so they too will be primed and painted a flatter matt silver with some dark smudging applied where the hands would sit.
