I applaud you for applying the decals! Did you apply a top coat to seal them in?

Thanks! I applied semi gloss top coat, just for protection.

Thank's all for the support!

My recent toy: VF1J

I did an additional light test with color marble lens to see if I can add some colors to the city lighting. It seems like it will work.

Also changed the main Bridge antenna from Photo-Etched parts to metal rod - closer to original design now.

Next, I designed the City background image from various screen shots from the movie based on the original city concept image and printed out/cut to fit the shape.

Here are the images I used. Please feel free to use it/modify it for your own custom. I made 2 variations with small differences. Please note that these are 300DPI images - so you will need to set the printer accordingly to get correct size.

Love your idea on creating your own city background!!

I will try to create my own city, thx!!

sweet....any useful tips on how u paint the missile pods? really looks great....

"light grey" and "red" portions were done by using Mr. Color. The "black" base was using enamel paint.

Dude you painted the entire thing by hand? That's pretty damn sick! In a totally awesome way! Looks more like it was airbrushed!

thx~ mostly done by airbrushed~ details were done by hand paint~

can't switch to another mode after painting~ hope you like it...
