Hi.

Here the new project.....(ont the only one...sadly..)

Nice base and I like the open cockpit. Can’t wait to see it painted.

REally cool looking model. Seems like a open-topped sentinel looks better than the closed top. I also really like your base, great work

Can't wait to see it finished

Just echoing what everyone else has said, a great base, fantastic pose and the open cockpit really suits the Elysian fluff.

Something appears on the imperial visor.......

Some shots from the base wips.....




I'm starting today working with my airbrush...so a lot a exercise have to do...

Hi.

Here we are again with some sentinel interior shosts.....

Its looking pretty badass so far dude

Nice to see a fellow Drop Trooper. I need to get another one myself to bring my Elysians up from my IA3 list to IA8.

Looking good, love in detail on the inside. I didn't/can't put anywhere near the detail inside as your did.

Here the first "rusty" stage....

Great stuff!

Now i'm starting to paint the sentinel pilot....

Here the assebly preview after basic colors, (a try of) color modulation and camouflage....







The next stages will be :
- Washes
- Chipping
- Weathering

See you next time ....

1. The base looks awesome.

2. The sentinel is looking awesome.

3. The model itself, is awesome. (I have 3 myself )

4. The posing is awesome.

Conclusion: General Awesomeness all around. Cannot wait to see it finished.

Nice clean work!

This is the 1st chipping stage (no washes done yet)







The chippings was made using for the base the Vallejo Game Color Pale Yellow and after the GW Foundation Charadon Granite (with brush) and after some other chippings again with Charadon Granite applied with a little sponge (coming from my collection of blister foam).

Too cool! I like the color and the weathering (thats what its called right?)

(thats what its called right?)

????

Looking really nice, will be interesting how far you can take it.

how did you do the painted eagle on the base? did you airbrush over a cutout template? either way, its looks very nice so far.

Hi to everybody...

Here the fisrt "wash stage"...

Looking good!

Looking very nice indeed.

I've been considering getting a few Drop Sentinels.

How was the assembly like for the resin parts?

This looks ace already - nicely done!

Fantastic looking work, very military modelling style, by which I mean advanced and realistic

Here we are again...

A snapshot of the final stage for the sentinel....



I want to do more (and better) photos about the wathering...this is a quick update.

Not so difficult...the only problem was a cover part for the pilot....do not fit so well over the sentinel top...

This is looking so cool so far.

I love the weathering/paint chipping that you have accomplished. battle worn without being too OTT.

wow that looks awesome! 10/10

Really nice work there. Will you be putting any unit insignia on there or is it finished now?
