Bob that stand is from the "OLD" Aurora aircraft kits. Had a yellow Jap plane back in '68 with one of those stands.
Did you make the finish line Ian? Have to remember you are in a way different time zone where you are. Speaking of which, where are you?

Well I finished the raider as per a standard build for the completion ribbon, but I won't lie to you I still have more to do as per my own personal preference but I don't believe this effects the criteria of completion. It's finished as per the standard instructions.Also I have come in before US eastern standard time for completion.
I just want to finally achieve a 3rd ribbon
1.Base color basic shading/weathering in acrylics.
2.metalic color basic shading/weathering in enamels.
Keeping my fingers crossed........MP?

This really turned out nice Ian! The base model is simple but your paintwork really made it stand out!

Finished off my additional shadow and weathering work - I will also post a timeline like I always seem to. I am happy with the sinister feel of the cylon which is what I was striving for. 
The way the paint went down....I would like to emphasize the no airbrush was used at any stage in the process.
I did get it out for the first time in 18 months and turned it on, ran some test paint, but ended up not using it on the kit itself as I felt I could achieve the same effects with more subtlety using oils and pigments.
Just goes to show that you can get soft effects without turning on the compressor.

Firstly let me say thank you to Chris, Warren, MP, Razordws, Paul and Luiz for your compliments. Sorry for not addressing this before I posted my final shots (It was getting quite late here in downunder land).
Hi MP,
no the base was brush painted; at the time my paint evac was not setup so I had no option and then when it was i thought I would challenge myself to brush paint all effects.
Now thinking about doing something for the WW1 campaign.

I really like the paint work on the Cylon Ian.
Very nice work you got my interest in the paste but no joy here in the US.
Cheers, Christian B)
