Now that is cool – they look superb together!
One of the problems in being away is how much really decent content there is to catch up on here in SPAM, which is why I’ve decided to drop most other forums so I can spend more time concentrating on what’s on here – and this build is no exception Kari – I’ve very impressed with your work so far, the little modifications you’ve added have really helped lift the model and I really liked the simple idea of using the cocktail sticks as supports.
Great stuff indeed.
I also really love the idea that you just jumped into a car and drove to an actual model shop, actually bought the model and then started building it straight away – I haven’t done that in so long it almost feels alien these days – I find that really inspiring!
Just to add a comment in defence of Hataka paints. Although when they were first released they suffered from poor quality, they’ve really upped their game since then. They’re not the best but aren’t bad either. I can’t comment on airbrushing, but for hairy sticking I have a lot of their blue and red line sets and have not had any real problems with them. They can be quite grainy, and do suffer from airbubbles because of those blooming dropper bottles paint manufacturers insist on using, but they dry really evenly and are pretty solid. Their paint matching looks spot on to me too.
Anyway – I’ll shut up now.
Cheers!
