1/72 Fighter Pod Build

[Return To Kit Form]

In amongst everything else that I have on my plate I am building up this fighter pod as a demo for our kit. It is taking a while as I am spreading my time across a few builds plus casting,  being a husband and father and working full time but it is coming along.

 

I chose east block aircraft cockpit colors as they are a bit more vibrant and contrast nicely with the dull green exterior. The colours are just blocked in for now with plenty more detail painting, fading and washes etc to come (a pilot too). 

Let us know what you think!

 

Cheers,

 

Brett

That looks great! 

[Xigfrid]

is your pad in inch ? If yes, this is quiet a big one

[Return To Kit Form]

Those are 10mm squares. If that was inches it would be huge!

I'm giddy watching this thing come together! When I was patterning the Gnerl, I was very much thinking of 70s and early 80s Russian aircraft and their "steam-engine" technology look, which you are doing absolute justice to.

[MechTech]

That's cool! I have to agree with the color choice. Russian research says it is "calming." I think it's nauseating, but it fits the Zentreadi to a "T." - MT

Thanks guys!

The build inches along. It's so disappointing to realise just how far your skills have degraded over time - just gotta keep at it.

Ahhh.... where can we get the zentraedi from?

[Return To Kit Form]

The pilot?

You could get one from me. What are  you using it with? At this stage we only have the seated one but infantry versions will be available in the future. 

If you want you can email us at: returntokitform@gmail.com.

Infantry in 1/72 and definitely 1/144! I'd buy enough to justify it. Using them in city fight battle scenes as living and casualties

[NZEOD]

Pilots could possibly be used as casualties too...

[Return To Kit Form]

As soon as I wrap up the battle pods I'll be looking at the next project. If the there is enough demand the I'll do some infantry. Otherwise I'll he looking at te releasing the N-Ger powered armour.
