  2. I love the internals! I think it's worth taking the time to do these right. And the white you are using on the head is really creamy. Well done! I really love seeing so many beautiful engines. At the same time it's a little intimidating, can't help but hope my own doesn't look shoddy next to so much fine work!

  3. Hey Siph, Cheers, I just painted the head for fun and got a bit carried away. Wasn't supposed to start until the Reaver (and a few other projects) are finished....

    Hi Dan, I actually find these models more forgiving than smaller ones. The white is Vallejo aged white applied roughly with an airbrush. It will get an oil wash after transfers, but that's when FW release them!
