Cylon Raider finished up

[derex3592]

Finished up my Cylon Raider today. This is the 1:32 Moebius Kit. Not 100% happy with it, but I'm sick of looking at it on my bench! (and yes, I didn't use the stock clear stand for a very good reason...I snapped the neck off of it when I went to put the model on it) :

Wow! Very nice. What did you use for the stand? Did you use metalizer paints for the raider?

Thanks fblanton. The stand is one of many I have from "flightpose". They come in 3 different sizes. Very cool for displaying models or toys in cool poses when you mix and match the legs. Yes, I did use Metalizer for the base coat. Can't remember the name right off hand. It was a little darker than I intended it to be. If I had it to do over again, I would go with like a Flat Aluminum Base coat and then go darker on the panels.

Interesting, you went dark with lighter contrast panels.
Makes your version stand out
