This idea is on the SPAM site and I thought it was a great idea. Since I somethimes don’t keep up with my own WIP posts, this is to consolidate all the builds on the bench inst one thread. Since the builds are not just one subject, I’m putting the thread in this forum if it’s OK with the moderators and FSM.
Most of you know what I’m working on, some don’t and some builds haven’t been touched in a while. I’ll continue to post in the GB’s I’m in and host, but put everthing in here as a contenious WIP thread.
So here it goes. These are the latest uploaded pictures. Currently I’m finishing the Perry, Spruance, Nick and currectly in progress on the MO and A7. The Prince is on slight hold but will get back on the bench shortly. I’m going to start the AT-ST very soon for an upcoming contest.
I did some work to the Spruance water. I added the first coat of acrylic varnish and the first of the cotton. The bow splash still needs a bit of work but will be more spray than white water so will go on last.
As far as the Perry, I’m painting the crew and need to spray the helo and RHIB.
the AT-ST has been opened and I’m thinking of ideas. Either abandoned standing up due to damage or laying down totaly destroyed I know I want a water enviroment for the landscape. Lying or standing in shallow water so I can weather it a lot.
Some more work on the MO last night. I decided to make the forward blisters nutron pulse guns and the bow barrel a sonic wave gun. Of course sanding and filling is in order.
Well, after some more work, I think I’m finally done adding and buttoned her up. Guns on, as well as the antennas. I think I’m going to paint her black and red with the black having a star field. The “camo” will be a MS 32 18D pattern like North Carolina using the black and red. I’m not sure I’ll paint any red on the superstructure but I’ll see how dark it is. Anyway, her she is just finished, then with the black.
Now I gotta say that one ship looks like it is going to hit heavy weather! Nice looking bunch of models. By the way I am reading " Sun King" ( It’s part of the " Queen of the Void" Trilogy) They’ve got A starcruiser in there that Kicks Butt and then takes names . She’s got a hangar full of small craft that does the same. Now that you know.
I have to ask, Where you put the " Pummel Guns," MK.43 Torps and the Pulse cannons? Can you still do a full broadside if you roll to port or starboard? I am going to have fun here.
