1/72 Star Wars Tie Interceptor - Fine Molds - Completed

Finally, Tie Interceptor project came to an end. Even as a Fine Molds product, it had few shortcomings (decals, masks, panels fitting). Overall I'm happy with the final result.

1/72 Star Wars Tie Interceptor - Fine Molds - Workbench Part 6

Getting close to the finish line with this build. Tie received Badaab Black wash (Citadel) to make it look very used and beat up. Some may think it's too heavy, but keep in mind that pictures are close-ups and in reality the elements are much smaller.

1/72 Star Wars Tie Interceptor - Fine Molds - Workbench Part 5

Finally I got to painting stage. Since none of the grey shades in my paint rack really fit the job, so by trail & error I came up with one which suits me. I used Flat White (XF-2) and Light Grey (XF-66).

1/72 Star Wars Tie Interceptor - Fine Molds - Workbench Part 4


I removed and prepared the solar panels. First they received 2 coats of Alclad II Gloss Black Base, followed after one day by 2 coats of  Alclad II Prismatic Sapphire. Unfortunately pictures are not showing the whole effect, but panels' color looks different from different angles.

1/72 Star Wars Tie Interceptor - Fine Molds - Workbench Part 3

Finally I got some spare time to run small update. Pilot landed in oval office which got assembled. Probably not too much will be seen after closing the fuselage.

1/72 Star Wars Tie Interceptor - Fine Molds - Workbench Part 2

I started Tie assembly from the cockpit. After its assembly, I airbrushed as a base color Neutral Grey (XF-53), followed by Badab Black wash (Citadel) and highlights with Astronomican Grey (Citadel). When everything was dry I sealed it with Satin Varnish Vallejo.

28mm Mordor Stormtrooper

While ago I received from a friend bag full of 1/72 figures (Thanks Micha!). For my surprise, among them, I found metal figure from Games Workshop's Lord of the Rings series. Figure looked incomplete, and for some time I had no clue what to do with it. One day, while browsing through some remnants from 1/35 scale figures, I found some weapons, bags and pouches, and I got an idea. How about modernizing the guy to Stormtrooper?

1/72 MAUS Dragon - Workbench part 2


 In previous part, I ended up with Maus painted with base color. Sometimes I have crazy ideas, and decided to try Digi Camo on this beast. Initially I thought it would be much quicker, but apparently I was wrong. Let me cover this process step by step...
It takes masking tape, scalpel, and lot of free time accompanied with patience. First masking layer on.
