Thanks everyone. I do plan on painting it but not right away. I have been working on this model for two months and need a break from it. So after I finish the rivits I will put him aside for a little bit and work on some other models and on the color scheme as well.

I am almost finished with the rivits, just a few more on the torso and engine and it will be done. I may have to do a quick count because I will use up my entire supply I made and am wanting to know how many are on there.

I hear ya, I got really busy with work and family for a few weeks and thought I would never get back around to finishing it. I really just got sick and tired of looking at it on my work desk and decided to just finish it and be done with the build.

Got rivits done a couple of days ago but was busy with work and did not have time to take and post pics. I have not started counting rivits yet but will try to get it done over the weekend.

Thanks ruff. I did not take any pictures of the engine as I was building it, think there is a pic of the main structure on pg2. At the time I was building the engine I was starting to loose steam on this project so I decided to skip taking pics to just get it finished up.

Thanks. I am working on a paint scheme at the moment. This is the best scratch built model I have built to date and I want to give it the best paintjob possible. I have a few killa kans I am going to test some ideas on before I start on the deff dread, and as soon as I have something I like I will put up pics.

Definitely to keep a watch out! I can't wait to see what the paint job will be like for it!

Thanks everyone. I worked really hard on this model and I am glad everyone likes it. I am also working hard on a color scheme now. I actually decided to change my current scheme to a new one because of my big guns and deff dread as the old scheme would not have done these models justice. Thanks again everyone.
