Description
It really isn't ready, but I HAD to get this shot. It's been YEARS in the making, and it hurt me, and messed up at every possible turn. Every single joint, paint mask, led, you name it, fought NOT to work. I still have to finesse a couple of things, and also set up a correct lighting rig for the ships spots. And finish the decals! However, just in time for a Christmas launch, (like the original movie, December launch!), it's finally here.
Paint masks by Maskdesign www.facebook.com/groups/584658…
Model 1/350 Polar lights.
Used mostly lacquer paints for the aztec, but switched to acrylics for the dish. Pretty similar look, but easier to work with acrylic.
