15mm scale
Well, it's done! This is definitely the biggest project I've done in ages, and although it proceeded painfully slowly at times I have to say I'm really happy with how it turned out. I went with a white/colour accent scheme because I rather liked the white/red studio paint job on the Ion Age website, and frankly, because it's not too hard to paint a lot of white this way. Also, I think camouflaging something like a four-storey-tall walking gun tower would be kind of pointless, especially if you want to use it as a "terror weapon".
(Now that I look at it all finished up it does have more than a passing resemblance to a giant walking Dalek... but that's not really a bad thing.)

Hi, Mr. M. Nice work, sir. Fine paint job and special effect.
ReplyDeleteAnd a nice touch of introducing us to a huge machine and his auxiliary "Doc" Bott.
Well Jay, you know your blog does inspire my photoshop efforts :) Thanks!
DeleteThat turned out beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNice colours, reminds me a lot of R2D2 :).
Well huh, you're right, it is R2-D2 coloured. I didn't even think of that. Some SW fan I am! The blue is Space Wolf Grey (?) from the old 1990-ish Space Marine paint box.
DeleteLovely action shot. Nice job creating visual texture with such a mono-coloured behemoth. I'm very taken with the soft (?patel?) blue stripes as well.

ReplyDeleteThat looks really great. Well worth sticking with :)
Cool! Nice work.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see it finished. I have linked it to a post on The Ion Age blog and told people about it. Keep up the mad and excellent work.
