After much taping, detailing, and airbrushing, the Normandy is complete! This was my first complete scratchbuild, and it sure was taxing. But I learned a lot and I'm pretty happy with the end result.
The glare in the lighted pictures is due to my gloss coat coming out a bit fuzzy(it was drying too quick when leaving the airbrush) You can see how much it reflects when the light is on in the pictures due to the bumpy nature of the coating, but its still black without a flash. This isn't too big a deal as it is, but I should be able to fix it with a correct coat of gloss/matte finish. I will probably pick up a can tomorrow and test this out before packing up for shipping Tuesday.
Now for a break, and then to think about MEM2011 project :]
Oh man, that's gorgeous. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteO_O Holy crap! That came out awesome! I can't wait to see it up close! Fingers crossed that UPS doesn't drop the box!
ReplyDeleteI want to buy this also! Such awesome work, it's too bad they never released an SR1 model like the SR2.
