This week’s video focuses on the painting that has been started and the photos show the work on the rest of the machine.
At this point, the track assembly, guards, engine, and pully system are painted and ready to go. The seat detail is started but I need to add some additional detail with paint.
At the moment, I’m working on painting the red strip along the walkway. I need to add some painting detail to the steps as well and then attach that along the side. No detailed painting on the right side has been done yet so need to add that as well.
The model will probably end up just under 1000 pieces. I still need to make a few more additional parts but wanted to paint what I already had finished and get that complete. I need to redo the bracket that swings out the arm and holds the spool too. Not a lot left to do but a few little things.
Overall, I’m pretty happy with it and I think it’s a very cool model! Thank you for your support and all of the positive feedback. Helps keep me enthused and motivated to keep going!
