Hello fellow addicts ;D

I decided to post a WIP on this awsome SF3d Original.
This one is super rad, multimedia, springs, wire mesh, copper, steel, camo cards,
heck it comes with some sheet styrene

As you can see it is a good sized kit, 2 in one actually 8)

Tools of the trade. Using Wave CA black coupled with ceramic knife= seem killer

Update shmupdate:

So, I hand paint my Maschinen Japanese style only. This may look strange to you at first, but I promise it will come together

Starting with pre shading using a mixture of Mr. surfacer/Mr. color gloss black and self leveling thinner.
http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss307/Maknifiso/Hornisse/DSCF1865-1.jpg

then proceeding with Gloss black using modified MAX technique(hand paint instead of air brush).
Also adding silver to some areas for effect. still pre shading.
