Here was the last updates.

Here some work on the base, glue the "wood" parts on place, and apply stained glass window varnish ( I don't know if is this the correct name of the product in english :hmmm ) to simulate water, and make the initial weathering:

Some problems happen during the paint process. The acrylic primer that I used, reacted to the enamel paint that I used on red parts. Whem I take off the masks, the glue of the mask stay on the boots and gloves, a friend tell me to pass compound to remove it, but the paint come out... :pinch:

Some work and re-paint ahead..


And I receive some help of G.I Joe's!!! Cobra Commander and Sgt. Slaugther, maybe the work be finished now.
Apply two coat's of Humbrol Gloss Black, now need to polish the black, them I go apply Chrome paint, after Clear Red an Clear Blue...

Cheers :drinks
