WAVE Raptor

[Lincoln Wright]

WAVE Raptor completed. This is an old model for me, finished a little over a year ago so it’s a nice comparison for the finish on the recent SAFS. It’s a little rough and less technical in some ways but I do like the smooth hand-brush/airbrush finish and the zenithal highlight effect. If making it again today, the pose and groundwork would all be a little different but that’s another good thing about dusting off old models and finishing them up, a little bit of perspective for how much we’ve learnt and grown.

It's a full custom job, replaced joints that are sculpted from putty, custom metal springs and 2 stage aerial.

Thanks for looking, hope you like it.
