TOMAHAWK MBR-04-MK VI

Already has a "massive" feel to it

Thanks Q!!!

 

[MrT]

Pretty cool, so far! Any plans for modding the cockpit? Or could you even see into it, once it's all put together?

Maybe?? You can show the cockpit open.

Really nice. I like the size of this kit. Will look very impressive when finished.

I know nothing about mechs, but this looks to have a more 'retro' feel to it.

Thanks Igard!!

Yeah that's why I like it.

Thanks

Ok I have done some more work to the guns. Added a few details missing from the kit parts that are on the box art. Then I have begun to paint the guns starting with a dark color working my way out to a lighter color. Here are some progress pictures.

Man talk about a build slipping through you fingers! I need to hit this one hard so this morning went back to work. I added the cockpit, front torso and the torso mounted weapons. I'm thinking about some extra details, but more about that later. So stay tuned. Here are a couple of pictures to get things going again.

Nice to see this one come back. One of my favorite Macross designs...

 

[MrT]

Thanks!! Well a little more and the torso is assembled. Little by little and bit by bit. Next will be the painting.







Ok I've done some painting. I base coated the torso Tamiya NATO Brown and then added successive coats and shades of Tamiya NATO Brown and Tamiya Desert Yellow. The final paint shade is Tamiya Deck Tan. After the paint dried I put on a overall oil wash Burnt Sienna.

























Here are some pictures of the process and progress. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.
