^that is the plan^^ and the saucer will soon get some helping hands

yup shaso... sometimes you need a moment to realize what works... and this actually happened faster than light

at rawson..
What about adding some doors around the guns so it looks like they can be withdrawn?
that would have been a truly great idea... alas it is too late... the following pics are the last unprimed moments of this build... the few shown warzone minis from bauhaus will be the upcoming advertised helping hands... got quite a few of them ... will be the painting work as of tomorrow....together with said UFO...

so here are the last pics... and dave? i did as you said... gued the cotton wool on and then sprayed it... i am very interested how tis will turn out...











cheers, vik

Holy cow, vik, that looks amazing!

I must say, I used the cotton wool method before, to represent smoke for some scenery, it looks great if you spray it black then drybrush different colours onto it (I went through yellow, orange and red alongside the black for a kind of firey plume of dark smoke)

Badass Vik! Yeah, feel free to experiment, remember, you can still move it around and sculpt directional curves and such with your fingers or tools if you want to, but it HAS to be completely Black first to look right, I have never tried drybrushing it myself, doesn't it need to be stiffened for that Shrike?

I would say if it isnt stiff, than just sprey it, with a can or an airbrush for the colors

well... childe... after the spraying, or better during the spraying i went in close to the wool and the mere jet of the spray sort of pressed the cotton wool in a thinner form... i think this will satisfy your aesthetics as hopefully does mine...

thanks RW and max... and yes i am eager to paint it too^^

at dave
..It seems like the brush would catch on it and mess it up..


i fear that too... but if it is still too soft then i will add lots of PVA or for that matter dilluted milliput to the surface... it will yield to my will^^

by the way... for stiffening... would hairspray work too?

aye, when I did it, it was stiff from the black spray I gave it. The brush shouldn't catch on it if you're only kind of brushing at the edges- to properly catch on stiff cotton wool, you'd need to have the paintbrush all but inside it. You only need to brush at the exterior to get the effect. I would show you some pics, but I don't have any on my laptop and it's midnight... fairly simple, though.

That is fething amazing that has really turned into a fantastic piece

I can just see the little grey men running around it screaming "phone home phone home" Really cant wait to see the paint on this now to really bring it all together.

I love this so much and the smoke looks pretty spot on to me, reminds me of all those alien films around the eighties early nighties, the smoke I mean.

The ship has that B movie film to it but in a good way

Keep it coming Vik this is really turning into a great creation
