Hi Guys,

What do you think? Still in the final stage of weathering and stuff. Also, sorry for the quality of the image, my batteries went flat and the focusing was a bummer.

Ahhhh!!! Another beautiful monster! At this point, it looks cool enough for me. A little wash will bring out some of the details.

I've noticed your barrel has a silver part of it, was that intentional or was just it because of the lighting?

BTW, nice drill set. Where did you get those?

The image is perfectly fine, Bistro. And so is the model. You know I never bought the Warrior, but now consider buying one. Great work, my friend. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, and btw, Braille rules!
Hehehe!

Great job Wanze! All this 1/72 subjects brought to us by Buck, Wanze, and Flex makes me want to do my own line now... but I must resist... I must concentrate on "other more pressing matters" #:-)

Query: The camo - the edges look very sharp. Brush painted or airbrushed? Or did you mask?

Thanks for the nice comments, guys!

Buck,

It's a nice kit with lots of potential. I bought another one for a new project.

Shonen,

The silver part is intentional. Some of my references on the BATUS vehicles had their guns this way. The drill bits were available at True value Hardware store at EDSA Shang.

GI,

The Camou was hand painted. I usually use two techniques; either AB or brush and it depends on the effect I want to have. Oh yes, I use a mask when I paint because of the fumes. LOL!! Seriously, I have'nt tried masking.
