Very cool. A lot like an occlusion map in 3 D (modeling) mapping.

admiralbuck.bsky.social•2 days ago

Exactly like it.

You got a ton of the hard work done. Time to bring the magic

Oooo. Way cool technique. 👍🏻

Looking good, Admiral!

You said you hadn't done the 1/350 PL 1701 kit before now. Over all, how do you like it? (I've not done one either)

Well, I had built the Hood from this kit back in 2017 - a highly modified version, so I had some previous experience with it. This is the first "stock" build. It's a great engineered and well-fitting kit. I've got 3-4 more of these on the shelf.

Thanks. Just wanted your opinion as I'd done the NX-01 and started on a Refit before realizing that I had nowhere to put them... But I expected a well deigned kit.

I haven't used the Mister series primer before. Does it go on as smooth as it looks?

admiralbuck.bsky.social•2 days ago

It’s da bomb.

See my previous posts in Mister 1500 Black.
