Had some time so I did a Repaint.

Finally got around to finishing the BFG and a proper paint job. Did the Rub-n-Buff with black acrylic wet wash. This is how it turned out.

 

Before the first paint job, and how it can be taken apart to transport.

Honest words out of my mouth: "holy crap!"

 

Very well done.

Looks good man!

Thanks guys, I was reading over at the MEPD a post that Woodman wrote about the weathering he did on his BFG. I thought I'd give it a try and as you can see the results aren't half bad. Just a little time some Basswood and PVC and Presto......BFG. (Close enough to scare a Jawa anyway! LOL!)

 

I was thinking of a complete remake......would anyone be interested in a build post?

Thanks everyone. I will get to work on making up a build post soon. I probably have about $30 worth of parts. (Probably less)

 

I hope to get out Trooping more soon. I really need to get some white armor going. I'll let you know how that is working out. I have a lot of plastic in Big Brown Boxes sitting in my garage. I just need to get some time to start slinging the E6000.
