Flying Razorback WIP *finished*
Re: Flying Razorback
But it looks really good! nice work.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: Flying Razorback
I love it! The colors are perfect! You should sleepily work under yellow lights more often. Looking forward to seeing more.

Re: Flying Razorback
I picked out some panels in a different shade of grey, then glosses coated for decals
...shiny hog!!
The nose art is made up of 4 individual decals, which needed some persuasion to settle down. A few strategic slices in the decals helped them confirm to the complex curves.

Re: Flying Razorback
Winter is always hard on my motivation, but I powered thru it and got more work done on the hog. I'm a bit further along now, with all the weapons attached. Just gotta remove the masking now!

Ah sorry to hear that - S.A.D can be a pain. Can't you get a UV lamp or something that supposed to help?
