SCI-FI Bandai Zeon Mobile Scout Set

[Jeeves]

Trying something different-- not sure how this'll go...but out of the norm every now and then is a good thing...

 

[Junkie]

This is cool!

 

[The Chaos]

WOW this is Great

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks Scott and Chris!


I have to say- this kit is amazing...most of what you see I have done in the last couple hours and with very little glue since everything fits so very nicely together!
Going to do it in a sort of WWII USN aircraft scheme....dark sea blue over blue grey...this is the lower coat...

 

[WebbyNZ]

I have this in the stash so will be watching with interest

 

[adampolo13]

cool stuff for sure.

[MrNatural]

Such a cool kit!

 

[JohnSimmons]

Wow that is different and your off to a good start!!

 

[unttld]

That kit looks super cool.

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks guys!

Just added the deep sea blue paint coat on...might have this done by week's end...but I am taking my time with the figures...might add them to a scene later...

I'll probably enter something else as things progress-- but I need to get through a rather huge observation at school first at the end of the week....after that, it's clear skies until May and June

 

[Junkie]

Looks killer man. This is 1:35?

 

[Jeeves]

Hey Scott--

Yes it is 1:35. Worked a bit on it as well as the figures today...but I appear to have gotten the head cold that everyone else in the house had earlier which is slowing me down a bit...I'll get pics up tomorrow while the ladies are out riding horses

 

[Jeeves]

As I mentioned before, I am going with a Pacific naval aircraft theme- and so I have some interior green mixed into the office area

From the front I know things aren't glued tight-- but adding the dome over this will tie everything together nicely..

This is one of the figures-- an observer I assume? Went with standard USN pilot colors of khaki and brown shoes Not sure what I'll do with the cap...maybe just make it leather?

And his tripod for his scope had a nice jig on the sprue for aligning the legs-- cool Bandai!

Hope to get more done tomorrow...

 

[Junkie]

Fantastic progress, lookin great.

 

[Quaralane]

Interesting looking little thing

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks guys!

Assembly and decals are done-- the gun is being a stinker and fell off right before pics... so I have to reattach it and then flat coat everything before I do a tad bit of weathering and call it done...

 

[cargoman5126]

That is way cool''' luv the subject..... very well done!!!!! ;D

 

[Quaralane]

Definitely a funky-looking little thing.
Nice work on it

 

[Grendels]

Looks good!

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks guys...letting the dull coat sit another day as our brief warm weather went chilly again...hope to weather and finish up in the next couple days-- then on to something different

 

[Jeeves]

Getting nearly done--

 

[Grendels]

I love the license plate on it!
