After almost 2 months since my last model & waiting for the IPMS model fair at Telford last weekend, its next model time.

Ive finally got my hands on the Cylon Raider from Moebius.

Not many parts to put together, I started with the small secondary parts, then glueing the bottom halves of the hull wings to the main fuselage.

I then primered the parts & now its time for all the bits to be glued onto the main fuselage of the raider.


Cheers,


Wayne.

Its finale time on the Cylon Raider.

After putting the second coat of the silver down, I started on the detailing.

Firstly masking off the long weaved section from the thrusters & painting that dark grey, then painting the forward vents in the blueish grey.

Also picking out a couple of the panels in gun metal, which was also the color for the rear vents & on the underneath of the raider.

Then came the cylon insignia's which I painted in Tamiya X-28 green, I then painted the eyepeice in red, with a little silver & white, to try to re-create the centre red-eye.

Then came the weathering, which I applied some Agrax Earthshade to simulate a burnt effect around the thrusters & then an all-round black wash, which I applied 4 times with my cheap brush & paper toweling.

All-in all Im really happy on how the raider has turned out.

Cheers,


Wayne.
