Nice detail and weathering. Gary S.

That's because you haven't glued it yet. Gary S.

After several stops and starts ten crazy gluing the tabs it's getting taller. I'm planning, after it's all together, is to touch up with black and then dry brush white oils to bring out the large amount of detail that this has. Gary S.

Thanks. You would probably have an easier time building one. A little more progress. Just following the instructions as best I can Some touch up paint will be required. Gary S.

Good to hear. I had a VHS tape of the movie and the back stories said it was sunk. Gary S.

Correction!!! Just made a close look at the model. Shaft is dark blue. Gary S.

Both hood and shaft were black. Gary S.

Talk about an exercise in frustration. I get on part to bend and insert the tabs only to have it come apart attaching the next part. :bash: :bash: This has made my never to buy one of my own. Gary S.

On the model, the name and centaur were hand painted with a toothpick. The blade is silver, the right-hand is holding a severed VC head by it's hair. The staff was black and there is blood dripping from the blade. Hope this helps. BTW the 7 shot rocket pods were scratch built on the model. Gary S.

The transmission was silver and the mount zinc chromate, swash plate dark metallic gray, push rods dark green, particle separator light gray, main rotor mast was a goldish silver, and the 7 shot rocket pods that had individual tubes were a brass dark green. Gary S.

I just added a little bit of brow to OD. Gary S.

They are also going to need screens. They could be opened by the pilot while in flight to clean out debris. The plastic skid fairings were gray in color on my ships. Gary S.

Thanks!! Gary S.

After about an hour and a half, this is all that was done. Getting the metal to fold and my bend is fun along with the insertion of the small tabs. Gary S.

Here's the pics. Gary S.
