Thanks, now this one is only 11" long. I still have a larger one in my stash. It’s a 1/500. I think Chris’s was bigger.
OK now more about size LOL [:P]
My kids have off from school for 4 days so I did not do anything more.
Tusday they go back WOOOOOOOOOT hehehe [party] so I will start back on it.
Thanks all
Bud
You still havnt finished that F-15 Capt?.. Anyways, this is Buds thread, so lets leave that for the Aircraft forum…
Bud, my Star Blazers Yamato (Argo)[:D] was 1/500…
The bigger one you are thinking about is my 1/250 REAL Yamato Super Battleship!
Chris
Oooo did your Space Cruiser Yamato model come with a model of a robot ? If so that’s the same one I have, Hmmm I thought it was bigger.
Maybe I was thinking about the Yamato Ship. Well they both looks GOOD
Bud
Yes, and that little robot once built, is actually a piggy bank!
Chris
LOL that’s cool
Bud
chris, nope i wish!
ive been sick a few weeks, and i’m busy finding another job, also im very busy with my best friends wedding, another friend just bought a house which im helping getting ready to move in (i studied civil engineering…) i just moved to a new appartment myself, lots to do there also, etc etc. so as you can immagine, my moddeling is pressed back into the background for the moment… also my ab is acting up (cant figure out if it’s the compressor or the AB itself which is causin problems)
i did actually put the unfinished F15 on my telly so i see it everyday, to remind me to pick it up again as soon as i find the time…
i can’t wait to get into the trek models i have on shelf, i really have to start those too. a quick summary:
3 enterprise box, deep space nine, USS rio grande, USS voyager, USS excelsior, and a few other boxes on their way. so i really have my work cut out for me eh?.. lol. i need more time…
oh well, lets worry about a job first, how else am i gonna pay for all that paint eh?
and may i say chris, those pics look GREAT!! too bad you cant just email me your skills…;-D
gr. s.
Any progress updates there Bud…
Very interested how you have come along since doing the deck!..
Chris
Wife and kids where home for 4 days. Kids go to school today and wife out to work, so I will work on it today
Bud
OK here are some more pics. I see what you are doing with the shading Chris. I tryed it and it came out so so.
I might spray it all black again and try over.
But here is the Grey.
Have a GREAT night all
Bud
You’ll get there bud… Patients mate…
Chris
Chris, I do have someone to ask. How to you make your stands for your plane’s ?
And I am going to repaint the Argo black and try again [:D]
Bud
So far so good Bud[tup] Keep it up & remember, Practice makes perfect Be patient bro and work at it and it will get to where you want it[;)]
OK all most done with this one. I’ll tell you, working with the little gun’s is a PAIN IN THE [censored] [angel]
I still have touch up work to do on her and I have to add 3 more things to her.
But this is what I have so for.
I was trying to do what Chris did with the shading. I tryed 2 time and you can just about see it. BUT I tryed. As time gos on I will get it.
I also changed the deck from Wood Look to all Grey. Everthing was just to small and things were cracking on me.
I still like it and one day soon I hope to do the big one I have.
Thanks for looking all
Have a GREAT day
Bud
Bud,
That looks great! Is that from captain Harlock? I grew up watching that cartoon in early 80’s. Always wanted that same kit back in the days.
No it’s not from Captain Harlock. It’s from Starblazers. I looked up captain Harlock becouse I had no idea what that was LOL [:P] I do now [:D]
Thanks for looking
Bud
Great job[tup] Bud!
Chris
OK it’s all done. I got the wings on and the stand painted. Enjoy I did [:D]
Thanks all
Have a GREAT day
Bud
Great job Bud!!.. She came out good…
I saw another 1/500 version of this one, and thought about picking it up… But I have been working on 3 Gundam mobile suits, thats why I have been very quiet of late…
Again, you did a sweet job on her mate…
Chris
Thanks Chirs, but I think now that I should have done the deck a Wood. O well next time.
And I was wondering where you were of late.
How about some pics.
Bud
Kudos Bud[tup] Looks good bro. Just think, when you start the bigger one, you can do it with the wood deck[:D]
