Wicked mate. I'll definitely be buying something from there.

Now the Commanchero is finished, its on to the next commission job, a 1/72 Lancer with Super Packs or Super Lancer II. Ive stolen the image below for reference.

A teaser shot. Not the beauty shots I will post soon but a quick "here it is finished shot".

UPDATE - It is finished and I'm taking photos of it now before I pack it up and send off to its new home. I'll post them here and on the Aussie Macross FB page.

Probably the last in-build shot I will post. Im finished all the painting and decals and most of the weathering. The canopies will need a little more detail, most importantly a panel line across that large bar on the right of the canopy that contains the split for the canopy which isnt moulded in so I'll need to get creative. In this shot I havent done the top of the fuselage with a flat coat but that has been done along with attaching the missiles. Ill do post build shots soon.

Im almost finished it. Here Im just fitting the missiles into the weapons bay. Ill post more picts soon.

Cockpit is now finished. I have to polish the canopies to make them clearer and then mask and paint the canopy frames and eventually glue them on.

They look pretty good. Im in need of several 1/72 so Ill hop on over and order some.

Amen to that. Everything I do at small scales is now with a magnifying glass/light. I cant paint small stuff without it!

They were painful to paint. My eyes are getting too old for this crap (and scale!).

Pilots now finished. Im just messing around here seeing how they look and trying to get them seated right before I put the consoles in.

Making some progress again. Cockpit completed. Nothing here is glued. Ive also started the decal process and once completed Ill move on to weathering.

ok now weather isnt sucking so much in sunny Western Australia Ive been able to get out in to the workshop to continue painting. Here I putting on the final coat (gloss) of a light grey. Weathering and decals etc to come next. The panel shading looks very light but it is darker and more defined than what the images shows.

Thanks for the offer. Ill need to check with the customer to see what they say before I commit.
