Hey guys, this is what I'm entering in for the comp, Industria Mechanikas 1/35 Remora. It's basically a flying space fishing boat.......perfect for Sci Fi then! I haven't started yet as I'm a bit under the weather but by the end of the week all parts should be washed and cleaned ready for primer!
Thanks guys, I'll hopefully be able to get to the bench soon and start slapping this thing together Just not sure of what colour to go for? The main fishing boat where I come from is Black and Red with white writing. It looks the part but is very well looked after, I want this to be a cobbled together rusty thing blowing black smoke 8) I may do a red/blue/white/ light green/turquoise etc scheme lol
Thanks for the interest guys, let's hope it's good enough Ken
It's funny I see these boats nearly every day and it takes a flying space fishing boat to make me actually want to replicate them :
This is hands down my favourite kit. It was such fun to put together. I want to build a second one and a few more of the Waldo kit Michael & Ian made. Looking forward to your version.
Hey John, that turquoise colour is such a classic for fishing boats in my area. The red, white and blue in the first photos reminds me of an American flag. But I suppose you'd definitely want a few different colours on there. The dark or rusty red of the third photo is also a classic for the bottom of all kinds of different ships. I'd just pick a bunch of colours you dig. Can't go wrong that way.
The fishing boats in my part of the world tend to be all over the place.
