Bandai 1/144 (?) Starwars Tie Adv X1 and Tie Fighter #6 (X1 completed)

A final touch with GX114 matte clear.

Done with one fighter.

Bandai 1/72 A-Wing #6

Main fuselage white color = 1/3 mixture of Gaia 071 (light grey), Mr Color c156 (white) and Mr Color c315 (light grey). Red color = applied thin layer of Tamiya LP18 Dull Red, and cover by layer of GSI Gundam color 22.

Cockpit is sprayed with german grey, original decals for IP, and enamel paints to add details. Cut a few thin masking tape to make the seat belt, brush enamel green / silver. Followed by a grey and dark wash.

Adding a bit of different grey tone, silver highlight and a yellow dot. 

Bandai 1/72 A-Wing #4

Sand the surface again, and seem it is smooth enough.

Prime with #1500 black

Bandai 1/72 A-Wing #3

Unassembled the kit, and applied Finishers green putty to smoothen some surface area on the fuselage. 

Rest of the parts are washed, and prepare for paint shop.  The pilot seat has a large connector to "click" in the pilot, since I am not doing the pilot (as usual, what's new), the connector is removed and sanded before proceeding further.

Airfix 1/72 A-4B/Q #13

Time to install small parts - missiles, landing gear well doors, landing gear supporting rod .... onto the bottom side of the fuselage. Also found that the small "wing" behind the canopy has been loosen, and have to make a new one again. 

Now down to a few parts to go : ejection seat, machine gun, rear exhaust, and the most important canopy

Bandai 1/72 A-Wing #2

Trial build is almost done

Surface details is really nice

Bandai 1/144 MAILeS Kenbu #1

I was not so sure what is it at the beginning when I received it together with a Hobby Japan magazine. I know what is it now :)

Just a quick build, and see what should I do next. It is very small. It has a strong industrial mechanical concept in its design and not traditional Gundam style robots.

Bandai 1/72 A-Wing #1

Wanted to start a new project this long weekend. Pick up the A-Wing and do a test fit in an hour.

Overall fitting is very good, except the top red plate around the cockpit - it does not fit into the well for it. Did some sanding on the inner and outer edges and it helps a bit, but still not there yet, will have to adjust further.

I might not install the pilot as usual, but then the pilot seat will have to be sanded as it has some connector for the pilot to sit in. 

The kit also comes with a stand and a gun tower for display. Look nice !

Airfix 1/72 A-4B/Q #12

Installed nose and main landing gears while preparing the rest of the gear well covers

Airfix 1/72 A-4B/Q #11

Prepared another few small parts for paint shop

Red line on edge of leading edge, with acrylic color pen

Installed the parts and it does look more like an A-4B now
