Comming along nicely Bud..

And yes, if you want the shaded look, then spray it black and then the grey over the top lightly.. I few times until you feel happy  with it..

Same with the red... You will work it out I am sure!Big Smile [:D]

But spray the top coat over the black from a distance.. Not right up close... You will know what I mean once you try it!

That's an original one Dubau!  It looks like a quick and easy build.  Can't wait to see the final result.  Whish brand is this?

Space Cruiser Yamato

Well thanks to Chris I pulled out an old kit I had in my stash for I guess over 7 years, of the Space Cruiser Yamato from the old TV show Starblazers. This kit is a 1/1000. I would have to say it's about 11" long.

I will post more pics as I build

Thanks for looking all

Have a GREAT day

Bud
